I have been a volunteer at this school since it opened. Every encounter I have had has been a positive experience. The children are engaged and are treated respectively by all the staff. I have been especially thrilled at how all the administrators continue to encourage and offer positive communication. This school's test results are a result of the entire building being committed to the students.

I am a parent of 3 boys at TCA and a substitute teacher, and I can confidently say we adore this school and everything it offers. My middle son has needed speech therapy and still has learning accommodations which have been incredible here. Hes grown so much because of teacher love and support that hes at peer level in testing for the first time! My oldest and youngest sons have excelled here more than any other school theyve attended. Theyve adored their teachers so much that they consistently talk about and visit them once theyve moved onto the next grade. The administration is supportive of both teachers, students and parents. My kids arent perfect. My oldest has had referrals and been sent to the Dean, and Im very grateful for the way they handle consequences. Honesty, accountability and integrity is important. The administration holds kids accountable so they learn, but they are calm, supportive and unbiased throughout.
I also sub at TCA and adore being around the teachers and kids. The teachers dont just leave movies for days theyre out. I love that they care enough to spend time to keep the learning going and keeping the kids on track. They put so much love and care into making sure the kids understand, are pushed to new levels, feel heard, enjoy special moments, and also stay consistent.
We are so grateful to have this school for our boys!

As a parent, I cannot say enough wonderful things about Trout Creek Academy. From the moment my child started attending, we have felt welcomed, supported, and valued as part of the school community.
The teachers are dedicated, caring, and truly invested in each students success, both academically and personally. They create a positive learning environment where children feel safe, encouraged, and excited to come to school every day. The staff and administration consistently go above and beyond to communicate with families and ensure that students are receiving the support they need to thrive.
What stands out most about Trout Creek Academy is the strong sense of community. The school fosters kindness, respect, leadership, and a love of learning. There are numerous opportunities for students to grow through academics, extracurricular activities, and special events that bring families together.
My child has gained confidence, developed meaningful friendships, and made tremendous academic progress during their time at Trout Creek Academy. I am incredibly grateful for the caring educators and staff who make such a positive impact on students lives every day.
I highly recommend Trout Creek Academy to any family looking for an exceptional elementary school where children are challenged, supported, and genuinely cared for.

My son is entering 8th grade and has thrived here. The teachers here are so focused on helping kids, and the test scores were amazing! The staff is courteous and involved and everyone has the best interest of the students at heart. I am happy my son is in a place surrounded by caring, professional, and knowledgeable teachers and staff!

I have 3 children that attend this school and I can happily say the teachers, admin and students are top notch! I have kids ranging from 8 to 12 and play a variety of sports for the school. Every day they wake up excited to go to school to see their friends and teachers. Being a retired military family, my kids have been through a few schools, I can easily say this has been the easiest transition and their education has excelled.

As a parent to 3 Trout Creek students the past 2 years, I can say that my kids have thrived here. They have all had passionate, dedicated teachers who truly care. There are many school events and opportunities to get involved. It is no easy task starting a K-8 school from scratch but I feel like administration and faculty are doing their best to establish a strong school community that will no doubt grow as the years go by.

In my honest opinion as a student who has been here for two years and is going to graduate in around a month..This school and your experience is based on you. The staff and everyone else does truly try their personal best but at the end of the day its your responsibility to hang around the right people. Respectively ive yet to have a good math teacher who teaches in my learning style but then again I know lots of people who liked our math teachers throughout the years.
P.S. I tear up those chicken sandwiches and slurpee cups on Wednesdays they always hit.

Im graduating this school in 2 months and Im so glad Im never going to this school ever again. The school is more worried abt backpacks than boys making r-pe jokes to girls and SA happening in the locker room, and I am speaking from experience. Not just me but 10+ others. And if your kid is special needs the staff and students dont help at all, they make it worse.If people are saying good things about this school, dont listen to them and dont let your kids go here. I beg you.
