My daughter has almost completed her kindergarten year here and I just have to say that I LOVE this school! Her teacher, Mrs. Reingrover, is one of the best teachers I've come across. I had some friends recommend this school, since a California Distinguished School. And the parent involvement is just amazing! Looking forward to the next five school years!

My daughter attends this school and so far I am really pleased. The principle seems to be really involved and her teacher really cares. All the parents volunter including myself and I see first hand what she is learning. 4 months ago she could not read and now she knows around 40 words.

Creek View Elementary is a wonderful school. My son has been attending Creek View since Kindergarten and he is now in 2nd grade. He loves school and loves going each day. He is doing extremely well. This is due to the dedication and commitment of the teachers and other staff members. I am truly lucky to be able to have my son attend a school like Creek View.

The school puts to much emphasis on the AR reading and the AR math. Kids are missing out. Teachers are average and the pricipal avoids conflict or takes the path of least resistance.

I love this school that staff the teachers all work in harmony to really bring the quality of education to a whole new level. We choose Creekview, our daughter should go to Rhodes but knowing how this school is I am hard pressed to change. I know why this is a California Distinguished School. Keep up the good work!

I have a 2nd grader and 3rd grade that attend Creekview. This is our 2nd year in the public system. I just want to say that parents need to get more involve with their kids school and teachers. We need to support our teachers and our Principal. The Principal's, staff members and parents hard work is what made us achieve our new title as a Distinguished School. Thank you for all the hard work. I am realizing how much our public schools need more parents to get involve. Keep the good work and don't give up!

I have found Creek View Elementary to be a very nice school. I have a 5th grader and a kindergartener this year, 2006. I have been very impressed with all of my children's teachers except two. Two of my children's teachers have been exceptional. They were willing to take time to explain things to the students, share their love of learning and encourage the students to be their best. I don't like the parking situation, which I think must have to do with improper managing of the schools resources. Everyday parents in cars jam into the school to drop off or pick up their children while a large parking lot at the school sits basically empty! I have found the parents to be very involved in the school. Some very nice families live around Creekside. Few extracurricular activities to speak of.

2003-2004 was our first year here, coming from a private school I had quite a surprise, I was irate that on the 1st day I couldnt meet the teacher, my daughter was new to the school and was scared, they didnt seem to care. The academics were equal to the private school. The principal seemed to want to show off power by changing things from day one and now into this year. My daughter excels here and I was impressed with the API scores, now they have gone down...why? I love the teachers and staff, caring and wonderful!
—Submitted by a parent
We enrolled our daughter in this school because the class size and scores seemed good. They did not reflect reality. She is currently in a fourth grade class of 34, with class sizes increasing as she advances. The curriculum allows for bright, hard working students to learn, but the majority of the class is so far behind there is no challenge. The performing arts were just brushed over. This is a school that wants to be great, but is struggling with budget problems and parent apathy.
—Submitted by a parent
Creek View is a very good school. The Staff there is caring and well educated. My children as well as myself have had a wonderful experience working with the teachers at this school.
—Submitted by a parent
Three of my children have attended this school and enjoy the friendships they have with other kids at the school. Although the school has the better intention of giving good academics, it does not have enough extra curicular activities.

Welcome to GreatSchools!
For principals and school officials, we offer a special Enhanced School Profile (ESP) which allows you to update and add information about your school, as well as respond to reviews. If you are a school official, click Continue to start.
Please note that it can take up to 48 hours for your comment to be posted to our site. While you're here, we'd like to invite you to fill out a survey on your school's programs, activities, and extracurriculars. It only takes a few minutes and will help parents get a full picture of your school.
Continue to compare the schools you have already selected or Edit schools to change your selection.
Get started now! You have successfully registered and can now start updating your Official School Profile. The information you provide is extremely valuable in helping parents and students learn more about your school, so thanks for taking the time!
Thank you for registering as a school leader. We just need to verify your email address. We've sent you an email - please click on the link in that message to get started editing your school's information!
