I personaly went to Cotton Creek. I am now in Sixth Grade at Matthews Middle School. Cotton Creek was the WORST school possible. The principale there is the MEANEST person possible. She hates almost eeveryone and has the shortest temper. i think she should be fired. she made many students including myself very miserable. some even cried.
My son has attended Cotton Creek for 3 years now and I am very happy with his educational experience. The teachers have gone above and beyond their required duties and really care about the students. The front office is so friendly and helpful too. I have not had to deal directly with the principal, but the fact that she knows almost all the kids' names in the school says a lot about her dedication. I love this school!
Very inept, cold & rude school Principal. I'm not afraid to voice my opinion. If I had a child elementary school age, I would petition to send my child to the other indistrict Wauconda Elementary School. I had a horrid experience with that woman & others have too. People are afraid to talk about it, this is why I left a review. Many families home school or send their children to a private school because of her.
Nice school, but from what I experienced the teacher was new & didn't seem very well trained to handle your average child. The Principal is rude! I really think that's just a part of her personality. Sad for her that she must be miserable. I am happy that my child is now attending a different school.
Great school. Teachers are very good. My daughter loves it here. It is a very tight knit community. Principal is not the nicest person in the world. Other than that, we love it.
I think the teachers are awesome and very helpful. Cotton Creek puts there students education first.
Cotton Creek School offers quality education and several activities to keep the children involved. As a divorced parent with three children attending the school, it is very helpful that the teachers make themselves accessible via email and keep me updated with my children's progress.
