Brush Creek Elementary School
S.s: This our first yr. As first graders. I have been personally beyond impressed, in addition comfortably welcome in every department. I have disabilities and needed to initially know staff via telephone-that alone , including the communication through email with all Bobcat parents make knowing EVERY school activity,or important family follow-up! I have to say , I carefully choose where to raise my daughter, beyond it being a beautiful area I'm living here primarily for my child to go to Brush Creek Elm.
The staff is incredibly personable, the Principle Mrs. Heckman is a wonderful woman, her daughter also is a student. The story my daughter tells me of Mrs.Heckmans daughter speaks volumes to the charchter of her as a principle, and a mom-my daughter,(1st grader) met her daughter who's much older( I believe 5th) not 100%)and the two girls became fast friends,not just those summer days, but her daughter was so kind to my girl, new to everything, and got her so excited to start- that still today my girl says " oh, gotta hurry , I know Hanna is waiting for me", gotta go, it's the only time the see each other I'n the week - a quick hi- since Hanna is a Saftey Patrol- I've been told-(all info second hand from my 6 yr old I hope it's exact- ) apologies if not quite Hanna , lol :{ lol
Well, to me that's an incredibly well raised child. I have no doubt WE HAVE THE BEST principle I'n the state!!
I'n closing , the school is up to date, I'n computers, the best play area, and organic on site, green house grown fresh food for daily made fresh salad bar, and hot lunches all following healthy guidelines!
It's not my cafeteria pizza! Thank goodness! I'm also grestful for the after-school program not affiliated but on premises...
Lastly, we tested for gifted first week if school. I have been to three, never had the opportunity to have that CogNat .
I would do all I could to buy a house and live here long enough for us to continue here until 5th grade. I'm probably Brush Creeks biggest fan, lol - but I'm sure a trip over there will validate this short novel
Happy learning!!
