The staff was very supportive on his first day and helped him when he needed it, and the overall community and school seem genuinely caring. I was initially a bit disappointed that we didn't get into a couple of the top charter schools and had some concerns about him attending a public school, but I think this will be a great fit for him.

We absolutely love Ries Elementary School! Mr. Q, Miss Perez, and all of the staff are amazing…read more They truly care about the students and always go above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome, supported, and encouraged. As a Vegas native who also went to Clark County School District schools growing up, despite what everyone says about the ratings, I am proud to let my kids be part of CCSD. There are so many incredible teachers, staff members, and schools that truly care about the children and families they serve. One of our favorite parts every year is their annual multicultural event. It is always so well organized, fun, and meaningful. We love seeing all of the different cultures, performances, food, and activities that bring the families and community together. It is such a beautiful way to celebrate diversity and make every child feel included and proud of who they are. Thank you to all of the teachers and staff for everything you do for the students and families. We are so grateful to be part of such an amazing school community!

We tried CCSD, Ries Elementary, once and pulled out our son after 1 week. His teacher was giving…read moreKindergartners brain breaks with YouTube videos and then she gave them 40 minutes of iPad time so she could catch up on other things. I Went to one of the CCSD Dream meetings and spoke to Joan who pawned me off one someone else and that person said they would take care of the situation and make sure students are only having 20 minutes a day. 20 minutes of iPad is too much for a kid. Hell anytime on iPad is. That's why Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg kept their kids away from an iPad and phone - they destroy minds! That school also only gives 15 minutes of recess!

2nd year here and the system they have makes. No sense. From how kids are being taught to the lunch…read moreit's just not very organized. As a matter of fact, if you didn't start with them from kindergarten they don't really explain to you the process. They focus on bare minimum. I remember my first year. I was so lost. I had to try and figure out what was what and how I get newsletters because I just never knew what was going on. Just so you know they do send email with the news in case you're new here. They are helpful updates IF THEY MENTION THEM TO YOU! If your child is advanced I would say don't take them here! They put kids that are advanced and kids who are behind the grade levels and think about how hard it is FOR EVERYONE! The kids who are at grade level and above have to slow down for the kids who are behind. The kids who aren't at grade level need extra attention and become disruptive as the kids who are at grade level and above are disruptive too. Can you blame them they are bored!!!!! How stressful do you think that could be for the teachers. I PERSONALLY seen how kids act. I signed a paper my child can walk home and the teacher also approved had no issues with this last year. However this year 2nd day and teachers were saying you can't leave where are your parents! Excuse me anyone can really pick up you don't have a list showing who is approved. 116 outside and they have my child walking back and forth. I honestly don't care what they teach my child as I teach them more at home because the homework was useless and way too easy! I talked to a few parents and they tell me how much they hate it here but unfortunately we are zoned here! Do better for our kids they are the future!

Pretty disappointed in the school. My foster son had severe issues after going through the trauma…read moreof being removed from his home. He had no education and was in first grade. He had absolute behaviors, which made it pretty hard for his teacher. Everyone was in agreement that the child needed extra support. As we went through the school year, this child did nothing. He would not complete tests, participate or do homework and received an F in every grade. And the behaviors were uncontrollable. I kept asking the school, the principal, the teacher, anybody who would listen to please hold him back. Sending a child that didn't even have the basic kindergarten education to second grade would be detrimental. But they didn't want to listen. We moved, and he is now attending a new school. The principal of the new school was shocked that Schoor elementary did not hold him back. They said that the school did him a huge disservice. We will be holding him back this year so he can catch up. In just 6 1/2 months this child is a completely different child with the support of his new school. His behaviors are nonexistent now, the only thing lacking now is still the education. I wish I would have stuck my grounds and continued to push for them to hold him back. Like I said, everyone involved was very nice, but I just don't think they were capable of making the correct decision for this child.

We've done both Coral Academy (Cadence) and Pinecrest (St. Rose) and Pinecrest is better…read more First, Pinecrest has a very effective system to deal with bullying. My child is somewhat awkward like most preteens and has been hurt by the very unkind words of peers. Always the teacher involves the vice principle who speaks to both students and follows up with me afterward. Administration leaves classroom issues to the teachers at Coral and if they do address a situation they do not attempt to notify the student victim or their parent to "protect the other family's privacy." The teachers that we had at both schools were GREAT (6th grade teachers at Coral and 7th grade teachers at Pinecrest.) No complaints there. Administration is more communicative and helpful at Pinecrest.
