Panther Lake Elementary School

Depends on your teacher. They are not all the same. Front office staff can be a little intrusive 70 percent of the time. But my daughters 2nd grade teacher was incredible. Which only made this years teacher stand out in the worst way.

My child has special needs and I am so grateful for the teachers and staff at Soos Creek. They are patient and kind, offering encouraging words to my child and me as we navigate what services my child needs to help them learn effectively. They have a few special education programs at this school and bus in special education students from around the district because of the many resources they have at this school.

WOW! I love Springbrook! What a turn around it's made in the last few years! My daughter went to Springbrook and now my son goes there. I've always thought it was a great school, just underfunded and left behind by the district. They've made up for it! The teachers are wonderful, caring and focused on giving the kids the best education. The Principle Lloyd and Asst. Principle Couch are there everyday to greet the kids and are very involved with the day to day activities. Also the school has been retrofitted for safety which I love. Also a new cafeteria and a renewed landscape. Great school, wonderful diversity.

New leadership and front office staff (with exception of the current office manager) has caused a high turnover with veteran staff. The principal is dismissive and only sees things as black/white. Checks things off the list, but her actions show otherwise with making unprofessional comments and rolling her eyes to gaslight you. As a parent, I am appalled by her behavior. I have seen the Office Manager chewing out a student during the time I stopped in to check in with my child. I am glad my children has transferred to another school in the district.

My kids have attended Sunbeams for 6 years now, and we have been so blessed to be a part of this school! The teachers and staff are friendly, creative, and truly care about each student. We have appreciated the small class sizes and hands-on, project-based learning approach. This is a great place for kids to grow - not only academically, but spiritually and emotionally as well. I wholeheartedly recommend this school to any family seeking an excellent education rooted in Christian values.
