Draper Elementary always has above state average scores on testing in all subjects. The Draper Dragon Scales program provides and promotes safe, kind and responsible behavior from students, which makes me feel good about the environment my children are in for over 30 hours each week. The teachers and staff have all been positive and wonderful to work with.

Principal Riddle and the entire staff have great concern for the well-being of the students attending Draper Elementary. They work extraordinarily hard and my children thrive as a result of this. The dual immersion program has enriched the lives of my children greatly and will continue to do so!!

This school is truly an amazing environment. The teachers are so dedicated to their jobs and helping their students to learn and grow and achieve mastery. So many teachers teach before and after school programs to offer the students of Draper Elementary a wide variety of opportunities. The principal at Draper Elementary is a great leader and makes decisions based on data and best practices. There's not a better school out there.

Draper Elementary is a great school! Parents are very involved, our principal and teachers are top notch, and students have great mentors to help them reach their potential. Draper PTA has a lot of great programs to encourage community involvement, arts education, inclusivity and many other great things! We have a new principal this year that really listens to problems and comes up with creative solutions, she is also very loved by the students. All three of my children would agree that Draper Elementary is a great school!

Don't let the age of the building fool you! Draper Elementary is a great school with fantastic teachers and staff. We get tons of parent volunteers and the PTA is strong and donates a lot to the school. They are constantly expanding the tech in the school with mobile labs, smart boards, ipads, etc... Did I mention the teachers are great?!

I have had two children who attended K-6 at this school and two who are currently enrolled. I have been involved with this school for more than a decade and have had very few issues. I feel like my children are receiving a great education. The dual immersion program has been a very positive experience for us as well. The teachers are very responsive and approachable. The current Principle is amazing and very proactive in improving the school. It is a great school community for parents as well. Most of the parents interact on a regular basis because so many of us volunteer and come to events. My children are very happy here and so am I!

My school is simply the best. I work with a fantastic group of educators who are constantly looking for ways to help their students achieve. Every teacher works hard to stay up-to-date on the new technology and the many effective teaching strategies that are out there. Every student at Draper Elementary is important and treated that way.

Our School has the most dedicated and hard working Teachers & Staff I have ever witnessed! What a great school to work at. Such committed people under one roof. I love coming here to work with such impressive people. I love the students and I love that I get to meet their parents. I work in the front office and so that gives me the opportunity to rub shoulders with EVERYONE...from students & parents to Teachers & delivery people! I love all the volunteers that sign in to help too! This is a great place to work. A very happy, positive & fun environment.

My school is excellent because the students, parents, teachers, and staff all work extremely hard to ensure the success of everyone. The school offers before and after school activities that students can participate in according to interests. There are great programs in place to help those students who are struggling in academics and behavior, along with opportunities to challenge those students already succeeding. The school is a wonderful and positive place to be!

We have the greatest school ever! Our students are safe, kind and responsible. They come to school with a strong desire to learn and are always positive. The teachers at our school are intensely creative, visionary and committed to excellence. All of our teaching is not only data-driven, but full of engaging strategies that motivate students to achieve more than they ever have before! We have amazing parent support with parent volunteers visiting classrooms, helping with projects and tutoring kids every single day. Our office staff is literally the best on the planet. They do so much for students, parents and teachers alike. The custodial staff are always friendly and ready to help both teachers and students with any and all building needs. Oh, and did I mention our fantastic principal? She is a tremendously positive, proactive person who inspires each of us to be better while helping us realize what we need to do to become the best school we can be (I think we are getting close, don't you?!). I am so fortunate to work at this amazing institution!
