I have never been so disappointed in a high school in all my life. My grandson just graduated May 25, 2024. Everyone that had special accomplishments got recognized and so they should except for the marines. My grandson did not get recognized for joining the Marines right after graduation. Every graduation I have ever been to if someone joins the special forces they were recognized and got a standing ovation ROTC was recognized. But dont you think that someone that is joining to fight for our country if we need him to should be recognized? This is such a major disappointment I was crushed for him. My whole family was crushed. We could not believe you did not recognize someone that is willing to fight for your freedom. I think all armed forces should be recognized. Especially if youre gonna recognize ROTC.

I was told my son this school was nick named "Crack" view after he had started going there. There are fights all the time and everyone seems to know about it, but no one seems to do anything. They do offer AP classes, however they didn't offer classes my son was really interested in. My son will not be attending that campus again, I would rather home school then send him back there.

My son has had numerous opportunities to excel and has taken advantage of as many as he can. There are many AP classes offered, and in our experience teachers and administrators have been very supportive. I'm in awe of the experiences my son has had as a student at Creekview. Love the school, love the band. All are welcome.

Very low socioeconomic school which means their is bullying everywhere, but especially towards kids who have money, their band is very political and my son was ready to quit after the 1st two weeks, he finished out the year, but it is so sad, he had such a rough year, he lost his passion to play. The main focus at this school is to get the kids the best education they can to get them to graduate. It's very obvious the students are not happy to be their. My child will not be going back this year after a year of being miserable and unchallenged academically.

Great school for children to attend. Helps them become upstanding citizens.

We just moved here from a larger district. We had thought that this was supposed to be a good school but we are very sadly mistaken.
1st). The climate of the school is very unfriendly. My teen tried sitting at a table for lunch and was told very bluntly and rudely he could not sit there. He went to several different tables and was told the same thing, that they were saving the spot for someone else. He does not dress differently, nor does he act differently it's just he is not from this school. When you pick up kids after school, they are all so quiet and non smiling compared to other schools I have been to, there is no school spirit of any kind.
2nd). The school is so far behind in technology compared to other school districts. They are still using 2004 monitors. They are trying to get the Google Chrome books in but most of the teachers know nothing about them. Our schools have been using the most modern technology on the market so that the students can compete with other schools across the nation. My teen is so completely miserable, because he so much further ahead than most of the students and teachers and he's not a genius.
3rd). Academically, it needs alot of work. Chemistry class, class asignment is very simple and very basic: How to find the mass of water in a beaken. A beaken.....many of these kids knew nothing of beakins or the simple equation, which was taught to my child clear back in 4th grade.
With all things considered, we are thinking of taking our student out of school and either homeschooling or having to move to a different school. I didnt want to believe how bad the school was but with further investigation, this is NOT a good school.

All the good teachers are being forced to leave because the administrators are handing the school over to wanna be thugs. How am I supposed to be prepared for college when any assignment I take including tests I can retake until I make an 85. They might as well pass out free diplomas.

Too many bullies at this school, most people are in their own league of independence and they only hate people that aren't from carrollton, most people are losers, don't go to this school.

I've been involved with this school as a parent and teacher for over a decade. Sadly, it has steadily declined over the last 5 years. The large staff turnover is due in part to the lack of support administrators have for their teachers. Students are not required to follow the most basic rules like dress codes and ID's. The school does little to prepare them for real life situations and the rules of society. The administrators demeanor is to get them through the program and graduate them in order to keep their numbers looking good. in the mean time, they allow students to get away with things that they will ultimately be responsible for in the real world. They are not taught to be responsible and good citizens and quickly learn ways to get around having to do their work, show up to school on time, respect authority and behave in a manner appropriate to their environment. When situations arise, as they ultimately will, the mindset is one of damage control and secrecy. There have frequently been incidents occur where other staff members or parents should be aware of and they are not. I am not alone in my concern about how things have digressed on this campus. Quiet = Employement

I have had one child graduate from Creekview and I have one currently a junior at the school. To start off, I was worried about the school being cliquish or closed off to, well a different sort of child- that both of my kiddos are. That fear was quickly removed when I saw how accepted they were- especially within the Theatre Arts Tech Crew. I couldn't be happier with the teachers. They don't make things easy, they challenge your kids instead of just letting them slide by. Creekview High School believes in their students and that has made all of the difference. Thank you to a wonderful staff. I feel blessed that my kids have you in their lives. Regards!
