We are very pleased with this school and our 6th grader enjoyed her time here. The teachers and administration are supportive, attentive and communicate on a regular basis. I thoroughly enjoy the daily computer generated grade notifications which helps to keep our child on track. Teachers often make themselves available on a regular basis for any areas of difficulty. We are pleased with the Pre-AP course offerings as well as the athletics, music and arts.

This school is amazing! The teachers are friendly and give you extra tutoring if you need it. My grades have outstandingly improved here, I went from a C to a A-, impressive eh? Mrs. Ball is a really great teacher too, she's my favorite, even though she doesn't teach me anymore.

This is my son's first year at Creekview and thus far we are very pleased with how the school notifies us when an assignment is missing and how the teachers will contact us while the student is still in class with them. My son loves to go to school and as a parent, that's what we all want to hear. Kudos Creekview!

I love Creekview! My daughter has been there for 6 - 8 grade and absolutely loves it! The teachers are very supportive and qualified. She is also is athletics and has the best experience. The coaches are outstanding. My son went to another middle school in the district and I wish he would have had the chance to go to Creekview instead. His middle school experience was horrible. Creekview has very friendly office staff and excellent leadership.

We haven't had any problems with Creekview, but have friends who have. As long as your child does not rock the boat in any way, shape, or form, they'll be ok. The school is located in a very odd neighborhood, which has it's share of run-ins with the police. I'm not sure if this was the only land left to build a school on, or what, but it was a horrible choice.

This will be my grandson's school next year. I have seen excellent bus service, and the school is in a great location.

The discipline in this school is good. However, the communication with parents could be much better. Teachers do not personally contact parents of struggling students. Instead, they send home a computer generate piece of paper.
