We recently moved to the area and from day 1, we have had nothing but a fantastic experience with the staff, students, and parents at Allen Creek. The principal took the time to show us around the school. The office staff recognized and remembered our names on the orientation night. The teachers (Mrs. Queen and Mrs. Middelstaedt in particular) are two of the best teachers I have ever encountered! We are military and my children have gone to a total of 8 different schools and this is by far the absolute best!

A wonderful elementary school in Marysville! My two children are very happy to be attending Allen Creek. This school is very organized and clean, you can immediately see it's managed well. The office staff is helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. The teachers are wonderful, probably the best teachers in the area. Our family has had only the finest experience here.

My daughter is in Kindergarten and already bored with school and homework, still doing worksheets that are basically what she's been doing since preschool. While she asked her teacher for harder homework, the teacher was unable to accomodate her and has kept giving her the same worksheets as the rest of the class. I remember being bored in school and every report saying how I had so much more potential, now I see the same thing happening with my six year old. The problem comes when you have that potential but they aren't prepared to challenge you and allow you to rise up. If your child is ahead of the general population in class in any task or topic, be prepared to supplement school materials with home activities to keep their interest. The teachers are not bad, just chained to a so-so curriculum. Also, if you want to participate in the PTSA you will have to be very proactive, as the PTSA seems a bit like an exclusive club and if you aren't in their club, you won't be contacted for events. Even though I specifically signed up to volunteer for events, they have not reached out to me, not once, and those events have come and gone.

I went to Allen Creek last year and I LOVE it! The gym teacher is amazing, Mrs.McDaniel is an awesome teacher. The school is wonderful, it's fun and I learned so much! The library is big and full of amazing books, they have a great A.R system based on points that you get from the books you read. If you get 100 points you go to kayak point(I got 750)! You have so many fun feildtrips, there is one for 4 days at Islandwood, it is AMAZING! I would never imagine going to a different elementary school!
