Silver Hills School

We LOVE Silver Hills. The teachers are amazing. The Principal is great. They really try to involve the parents. They have an activity once a month that the parents can come to. They have many groups that allows the children to learn at their level. Several of the teachers have masters degrees. The kids love being there. I could not have picked a better school to send my kids to.

My son transfered to Silver Hills from Bennion Elementary when we moved. I wish now that I would have done my research before we changed schools. The school's gifted program is non-existent. I actually had one teacher tell me she couldn't 'challenge' my son becaues of the children who were behind. At Bennion parents would overflow into the halls at programs and assemblies, at Silver Hills I am disgusted with the parents involvement and support for the children. For a school with such a 'large amount of students' (that the pricipal likes to constantly remind us of), there are hardly any parents at assemblies and programs, they don't even fill the gym. If your child is going to change schools, do your research first, education is so important - don't let it take a back seat to anything else.

Silver Hills is a FANTASTIC school. The teachers are overall devoted to their jobs and improving their students learning. My children enjoy it.

This school is awful!!! Their 'Gifted' program is a joke. My daughter is unchallenged and bored. When I have talked to the principle or her teacher they have both been inattentive and rude. They don't care about the kids, their success or failures as long as they get their money from the state for pumping one more child through the system. I cannot speak for all of the teachers there but I know that her second grade teacher that teaches the 'gifted' class is one of the worst teachers I have ever met. Do not send your child here!!!

This is an okay school. The principal Ms Koji will blame your chlid when you confront her about anything, yes she may know names of children but I am not the only unhappy parent!

My student attended Silver Hills from Kindergarten through grade 6. He had great teachers and a great principal in Mr. Day. Mr. Day left and the new principal, Ms. Koji, was very difficult. We only went there her first year as principal and then we were done with that school.

I am a former student of silver hills. I atended three different elementary schools and silver hills was the best. Most of the teachers are good, of course there is the selective few, but the princepal was the best ever! She knew the name of all the 4th, 5th and6th graders!
