Owl Creek School

This school is a joke! Most of the adults that work here are very rude and once your child has been punished for another childs wrongdoing they are singled out by the staff. If your child is bullied then tough luck. If you care at all about your children DO NOT send them to this school.

This is the best school in Fayetteville! My child has been at Owl Creek for the last three years--the teachers are amazing and are really willing to go the extra mile, and the principal really cares about the students. Lots of chances for families to get involved, and they have phenomenal clubs and activities for students, including Strings, Lego League, Drama, and Gardening. The rating on this page does not do this school justice. I can't wait for my younger son to start Kindergarten next year!

They have some of the worst teachers I have ever seen since my girls have been in school. This school is very disorganized and fails to tell parents about school events in advance. Teachers do not answer emails or notes sent from home. Office staff is very rude when answering the phone and when face to face. Teachers fail to communicate about student's progress until the last minute. Teachers also give questionable grades. Just an overall bad school with failing test scores, if you value your child education do not send them here.

My 5th grader is currently begging me to change schools! Why you ask? Because the teacher she has is often rude to the children that go off to G.T! The principal when my child was teased about her gender was basically told to suck it up! Plus field trips are hardly ever there! Also academics are way off! When she went from a Springdale school to here she was surprised by her spelling list. She went from learning how to spell 'honeybee' and 'Arkansas' to 'boat' and 'see'. What the heck! Often the children are cruel and mean. ALL the girls think they need makeup and boyfriends. THEIR IN 5TH GRADE FOR HEAVEN SAKES! the cliques are already formed. Once my daughter over heard an inappropriate joke from the 'cool' clique. God DON"T SEND YOUR KID HERE! Plus after their old music teacher nobody can teach here. My kid knows more about the Civil War than her teacher does. Stupid.

My child has been a student at Owl Creek for the past four years. The teachers are dedicated, they are fresh with new ideas, and always there to help my child succeed. The principal has an open door policy and really knows the students. The student body is a mixture of individuals of different social economic statuses but they are like typical students. I love the outdoor classrooms. The school is improving the the teachers and principal are the reason why. The parent involvement is improving. Owl Creek Rocks.

I have found the kindegarten teachers to be warm and very willing to help. I think they do a great job of keeping parents informed.

My son is finishing Kindergarten up there, I can say he has learned a lot but it has been a very interesting year. If you are looking for teachers who communicate with parents about what is going on with their students or a school who has enough funding to do field trips, etc then you dont go here!
