I am very pleased with Dry Creek Elementary School. My nephew attends this school, and is now in 2nd grade. I adored his Kindergarten and 1st grade teachers. I would help in the classroom from time to time. I know that each teacher is teaching California State Standards and prepares their students to be successful learners for the future. I am pleased with the office help, they are very nice, and the Principal is outstanding. He makes himself present before and afterschool, and at school functions. This school has a lot of spirit, and offer fun activities for the students to enrich their learning experiences.
