We are very happy at this school. The administration, teachers, and specialist have all been great. My daughter has exceeded my expectations and really blossomed at Harris Creek. We feel like Harris Creek is a home away from home and feel like there is a great sense of community.

My child has been at Harris Creek since 2005. I have been quite pleased with the teachers and administrators. Not only have my children excelled academically, but emotionally and socially. The children have been exposed to the arts and science through special programs. Love this school!

I took my kids out of their magnet school program to send them here. The teachers are excellent and the principals are wonderful. Every child is looked at as an individual, so their assignments are designed with their own learning styles in mind.

Harris Creek is a great school to bring the kids. The principal and the vice principal go out of their way to make each child feel welcome. The staff is very welcome and have been able to help my children.

Very unhappy with the teachers and the staff. They are uncooperative and they don't want to listen to what the parents have to say. Save yourself a headache and put your child in a different school.

We love Harris Creek! I have two children here, one typical child and one with special needs. This is our children's third year at Harris Creek, and we have found the teachers to be very responsive and caring. The administration is responsive, when necessary, and all staff members communicate wonderfully.

Very unhappy with the administration of this school. Even the people in the front office are rude and unfriendly. Communication between school and parents is non-existant! Send your kid somewhere else.
