    "If you have a lot of money and are either a very well educated Doctor or another acceptable, one with money, in the schools eyes you are great. If you do not have the needed money in order to establish importance to the administration, please do not have your child attend this school. Without designer clothes, trips and handbags, your child will become a recluse. Even if you have a severe problem, email the counselor and the principle, do not expect to get an answer unless you are with designer clothes, handbags, or cars, or anything else that resembles money."

    "My 3 kids went to this school because we lived near by, we pulled them out. The principal cares more about self promotion than anything else, most of the teachers are mediocre and the parents are very clicky and with a very flashy/new money show off attitude. My youngest daughter has a learning disability that was poorly tested and carelessly addressed. A couple of teachers were verbally abusive to the kids, the school put no pressure on the school bus company to pull the tapes after a severe fight was reported to them, etc. Overall, a very poorly managed school with a very high teacher tunrover and a self promoting principal. Run away from Copper Ridge, try Cheyenne which has a strong well regarded principal and a slightly better staff."

    "We are finishing up the pre-k year in Mrs. Torrilhon's room. I observed many pre-k classes before settling on this one, and I feel so unbelieveably lucky that my son had such a wonderful school experience. In the morning, he runs to class. We had tried a worksheet based private school before copper ridge, and my son was miserable. Not the way I wanted to start his school experience. Even though we are out of district, we are going to continue here, I am really happy that he is loving school. After reading 'Nurture Shock' I believe that Copper Ridge is really on the cutting edge of Early Childhood education, and specifically Mrs. Torrilhon really knows her stuff. I would recommend this school to anyone."

    "We went to this school for several years. We found the focus to be about everthing but the academics...too much emphasis on parties and teachers gifts. The kids are also poorly behaved and the school lacks a proper discipline program. Would skip this school if you can!"

    "We have been very pleased with Copper Ridge. The Administration are top notch and very approachable. Both of our children are thriving and doing very well."
