I could not be happier with another school. The second and fourth grade team is amazing.

My daughter has been going to this school since kindergarten. We love this school. Her teacher this year (Miss Porec, grade 3) is an amazing teacher and the school is very fortunate to have her. She makes her students think creatively and pushes them just the right amount. We are moving and this school has set the bar very high for our next one.

I love Rice Canyon. It is a great school. My oldest in in Kinder and she loves her teacher. (Ms. Allenbach) She is the best teacher that I have ever meet. She loves her kids and teaches them so much. All the teachers that I have meet are great so far. The front office staff are also very nice. I am think that it is great that they know all there children by name. They make me know my child is going to be safe while she is there.

My son was in Mrs. Allenbach's class last year for kinder. She has a genuine love for the kids and a natural desire to teach. We had a great year. Thank you RCE.

We move here in 2005 from Los Angeles. We were somewhat prepared knowing that our child maybe behind starting the third garde. We never realized how behind he actually was. Thank goodness Mrs. Smith came to the rescue. She comforted us and said he would have to work hard but not to worry that everything will turn out fine. He really blossomed. He was on honor roll, achieved over 100 A.R. points,and his tests scores were above average. Now, in the 5th grade, he still is on honor roll and his test scores are still above average. I am so thankful for the outstanding teachers and staff at Rice Canyon.

My son has attended RCE since K and is now going into the 3rd grade. He had Mrs. Henry last year and I can not say enough good things about this teacher. She is amazing! She is the type of eduacator that goes above and beyond. She always kept us informed on everything that was going on with our child. Very good communication. If your child has her next year concider yourself lucky. You and your child will have your best school year yet. Parking, pick up, and drop off are horrible though. This was just bad planning by whoever desined the school though. I do not think they knew how many students would be attending this school.
