We moved into ACE's boundaries from another local elementary school because of the reputation and we have not been disappointed. There are so many activities and programs for all ages and types of kids. The teachers, staff and administration are 100% committed to putting 'kids first'. They are such a friendly and caring school where parents are encouraged to be involved. I've taught in many schools and subbed in several as well and you won't find a better one than this!

My daughter attended only Kindergarten in this school. The teachers are warm & accomodating. When my daughter was offered to go to another school for the ELL, Dr. DeMoss, the principal called us at home. That's how down-to-earth they are. Imagine a busy principal on an enrollment day would call anyone missing on ther list. When we moved out-of-state, my daughter not only got an advanced level in English-Language Arts & Math, but also a blue ribbon award. The school lad a good foundation in her academics.

My child attended Arbor Creek all seven years of his public education. I must say that when Arbor Creek opened its doors seven years ago, we were all a bit apprehensive to see what would happen. I can say that Arbor Creek has FAR exceeded my greatest expectations for my child. This school has it all. Receiving the Blue Ribbon Award was just the start for this group of dedicated teachers and staff. Dr. DeMoss does a wonderful job leading this school and caring for our children. I can't imagine my child attending anywhere else. We were blessed to be able to be in the Arbor Creek Elementary community.

We love this school! Every staff member is wonderful and cares about the students. It is amazing that the principal knows every child by name and typically knows something abuot them to have a conversation with them about. We love ACE!

New to Kansas and Arbor Creek has an excellent staff & principal. New and nice facilities and activities. Spanish classes leave a lot to be desired, though. Besides that, wow! We love it.

This school is wonderful in all ways. The principal is 100% dedicated to the school and it's success. The staff are all enthisiastic and well qualified. The are so many opportunities to become involved at this school. The children here are well educated, cared for, happy, and safe. There are many choices of extracurricular activities for older grade children. What you dream about in a school.

My son has been attending aces since it opened and has had a wonderful academic experience which extends from the teachers to the principle. Being very involved in my childs life I have nothing but admiration and hold the staff in the highest regard. The only concern I have is the lack of attention to security on school grounds. An adult or anyone should not be allowed to wonder the halls or school grounds without some type of appropriate I.D. displayed. I have been to my childs school many, many times during school hours. There is a sign in sheet and the staff in the office know me by now but in the begining they didn't and I was never asked for I.D. They have a sticker your suppose to where but don't make you wear it or make sure it's filled out correctly.I hope this gets addressed. We love arborcreek.

This school, Dr. DeMoss, and the entire staff are outstanding! I've never experienced such professionalism & personal caring in one school. The staff as well as the ACE students/parents are very welcoming, caring and passionate about their school! It's wonderful and I highly recommend it!!
