My oldest went to Kelly Creek from Kindergarten through 5th grade and had a wonderful experience here. The teachers and staff are wonderful and caring and are always great with communication. The PTC works hard to put on lots of fun family events and activities for the students. The school has lots of great safety measures in place which I love and the school is clean, updated, and inviting for kids. My Youngest is now going to Kindergarten here and I couldn't be more excited for her.

I have been very happy with Kelly Creek Elementary. The teachers are very hardworking and there is a great sense of community. This year they received a grant and each classroom has a smart board and each student has a laptop. I love that my child has an opportunity to learn using these tools.

My kids have all attended Kelly Creek Elementary from kindergarten through 5th grade, and they've each had a wonderful experience there. There is a strong sense of community and support for students. Parents are often involved in many aspects of the school. With only one exception during all this time (involving a teacher who is no longer there), the teachers have been consistently outstanding and problems are resolved quickly at all levels. I know several families who moved away and were so disappointed by other school that they moved back just so their kids could go back to KC. I also love the diversity in the student population. The only challenge I see is a need for more financial resources, which is an issue that is up to the State and the voters (not the school), but they have done great things with the budget they have. I'm happy my kids are KC students!

I was surprised to see such a low rating for Kelly Creek Elementary school from Zillow. Both of my kids attended and the teachers and other staff were wonderful. School was clean and modern. When my kids reached middle school they were in the upper 15% in reading/math/English.

I live in the Kelly Creek School area and am so very impressed with the spirit felt at the school as well as the wonderful activities and interaction with staff, teachers, students and parents as well. I would like very much to see these students doing more in their neighborhood community by sharing their activities and assistance to people in their area. Perhaps once a month the students could be providing ideas for making their neighborhood a better place and enlisting the help of the many retired people in the area of the school to assist and be an integral part of the activity or project. Perhaps planting bulbs at a home of a disabled neighbor who could enjoy the joy and remember the excitement of seeing the students making this a memory. Students might note ways in which the retired or new neighbors might learn or know more about their school by taking photos of their recent projects and sharing with homes within the neighborhood or with the neighborhood leader in a certain area about the school. Interaction with neighboring homes can be timely, and can open new doors and support systems for both neighbors and schools.
