I am a mother of three children whom have all attended cottonwood. I have had nothing but a pleasant experience. Whenever I have had an issue arise it has always been addressed and handled in a timely manner. As every school there are always going to be a few people you may not like or get along with. However you should not judge the school on their behavior. I love cottonwood and wouldn't be prouder my children are and were coyotes.

I have gone to this school from kindergarden to 5th grade, and let me tell you, this school is horrible the kids are not nice there is gossip going from kid to kid... The procters do not care there is one really good procter but, the other ones not so great.. as the other review said it wouldnt hurt to smile. The subjects they teach are not callenging at all... A great school would have 1. Ecellent teachers. 2. Strong principal 3.Challenging academic programs.. I would say that this school has 1.5 of these things and if they did work on somethings I would have them work on the respect for staff/students, getting more involved, and making it more of a challenge on work.. ! That would make this school at least decent...

I've dealt with this school for the past 3 years and let me tell you i wouldn't recommend it to noone. Only a couple good teachers, and not challenging at all. Education doesn't seem to be a priority for this school. Most teachers are slackers in this school and staff are there to cover them up. Principal is a nice person but makes bad choices on who she has working under her. Parking is very dangerous and PTC leaders, simply don't care in even trying to seek options. Its definetly graded a 3. Very well deserved.

This is a terrible school! Parents are not notified of anything. Children are either disciplined in a very unreasonable manner, or not disciplined at all. The children are not challenged. My child's test scores and acamedic performance dropped significantly after attending this school. It's just terrible. Some things going on in the classroom have nothing to do with education, or meeting state standards.

We test kids at the end of the year and beginning. Kids that don't keep up during the summer take a giant step backwards. If our kids do complain about homework, we ask them,"Do you want to work for a company, or own the company?"

No. Let the children have a break. Let their minds focus on being children. They'll have plenty of homework when they go back to school. I would not even consider enforceing summer homework for my children. They need stress free playtime.

Yes. Of course summer is for fun however they can take a brake from homework 2 weeks or so, not the whole summer. If you teach a child the importance of learing they will enjoy the homework even in the summer.
