The staff are exceptional at this school. They have great communication and my kids really love coming to learn in this environment. My kid's test scores show that they are learning at a great pace and they have made friends easily in such a welcoming environment. We love this school :)

A top quality school for academics. Highly Capable classes are offered beginning in 2nd grade!! Teachers do a great job meeting children where they are, be it advanced and ahead of the class or behind and needing extra instruction/encouragement. Like Heatherwood and Gateway middle schools, Mill Creek Elementary addresses diversity and minority issues comprehensively and empathetically. Having spent a great deal of time observing interactions between children during recess for all grade levels, I can say they’ve integrated well with each other. If I could make a suggestion however, it would be to teach kindness and improve character development opportunities, like require participation in team sports. Offer team golf, tennis, and swimming to help kids keep themselves centered.

Both my son and daughter go to this school and we couldn’t ask for a better experience. Such amazing teachers! And their ITP’s for our Son have proven very successful and my daughter’s confidence has grown a lot since going here. I attribute much of their success to this school and it’s people, because I’m a lousy parent when it comes to academic support. They are all great and caring here!

My son attends Mill Creek and he has had wonderful teachers who obviously care about their students. His current teacher is wonderful and we are working closely in getting the extra help he needs due to his ADHD.

My twins went to first grade here and just loved the school! The teachers were warm, knowledgeable and you could tell they really enjoyed their job. We met some of the higher grade teachers during various programs and their enthusiasm was amazing. Plus they had so many programs available outside of the school curriculum that the kids always had stuff to do that they enjoyed and the programs worked well with the school so transitions to those programs were seamless.

I went to Mill Creek Elementary 20 years ago, and I finally got to move my kids back into the school this year. The teachers are phenomenal, and I'm so glad they're working with Junior Achievement! They focus on career and business skills in addition to regular academics. I couldn't be happier to be back in Mill Creek!
