Q.C.U.S.D.#95 - Queen Creek Toy Box

Queen Creek School District is a great public school district. It has high quality teachers, good school leadership, and well maintained schools. The approach to teaching is giving our children the foundation to learn, excel, and succeed in school and beyond. Jack Barnes Elementary is providing an outstanding, quality education for my son. The teachers are dedicated and create a warm and nurturing environment for the students to learn in. They push children towards success and encourage good character. There is a great small town feel about the school and we immediately felt welcome when we moved here.

QCUSD is an amazing “A” rated district! Our family has been blessed to be a part of this district for the last 7 years. We have been impressed with the quality of the teachers and staff in this district. The teachers are passionate about what they do and it shows. They offer so many great parent information programs and are very involved in the community. We moved to Queen Creek to be a part of this district and it was the best decision that we could have ever made!!

My experience is with the Special Education Department. My son is autistic and we have had nothing but one horrible experience after another from the so-called Lead Psychologist to the Queen Creek Transportation services. The Lead Psychologist removed a service from our son's IEP without our knowledge or any testing to say he no longer needed that service. She has tried to make sure Queen Creek Unified School District gives him as little service as possible. The transportation was fine until our son got the present bus driver and the bus aid. Today the two of them put our son (non-verbal) in horrible danger. When they were confronted, neither one of them wanted to take responsibility for what they did. I have had to speak to the Director of Transportation (Ed) several times due to the behavior of this same bus driver. The Special Education Department (including the transportation department) needs to be investigated and purged. It is already hard for special needs children and their families--we do not need uncaring, unconcerned, and unaccountable people working with our children. If you do not have the heart for this type of work...please, please do us all a favor and find another career choice. Some of the people that work in this department have shown poor quality of work ethics and do not service to work with our children. If I could have not given one star I wouldn't have...QC has one star because I had to pick at least one. I would not recommend this school district for a special needs child...please look somewhere else...they cannot and will not help your child!

So they forced their employees to teach online from their classrooms, and less than a week in they have a number of Covid cases. Now the leaders STILL want students to be back on campus Aug. 17? Why would any parent send their children to a place with such a reckless and callous view of human life? If this is how Queen Creek treats their own employees, why would I trust them to keep my child safe?

What an amazing experience working with Stephanie Ingersoll, Marketing and Public Relations for the Queen Creek Unified School District! My son, qualified for the State Geography Bee for Queen Creek Middle School and Stephanie set up several media appearances for him to share his success. Stephanie was so professional and made everyone feel so comfortable. It was a day we will never forget and so grateful to be part of this district. A big thanks to Principal Dr. Wolfe and my sons Social Studies teacher Tracy House for all their efforts.
