Open Quote I am glad to have chosen Wilson Creek Elementary school. In the time that my child has been a student there, we have found 100% of the teachers (who have had direct contact), front office staff, administration, and cafeteria manager just awesome and friendly. I am a parent of a second grader and those teachers whom my child has contact with, are nurturing and encouraging. I certainly appreciate that email keeps me in the loop, up to the minute, when I need to alert my child's teacher for anything, with rapid responses and likewise when I need to be alerted quickly.

I have found the instruction the students are given by the classroom teacher to be tailor-made to each child's advanced or on-level abilities. Many opportunities are given for advanced placement even at such a young grade level. Close Quote
