I had the privilege of attending Rice Creek from Kindergarten to Fifth grade. Rice Creek is an amazing school. The principal knows every student by their first name. I felt like part of a family while there. The teachers always made learning fun. The word "can't" was not an option. The only thing that I wish I could change at Rice Creek is their awning in front of the school. It's not long enough to keep the children dry on rainy days.

My children have attended for two years now and we have open communication with teachers and staff. They are very appreciative of parents who are involved.
