Soos Creek was a really good school. I really enjoyed all the teachers and the students there were some of the nicest. I went to Soos Creak for k. 1st , 2nd, 4th, and 5th grade. I loved all my classes and i really learned a lot. the only thing i think they need to work on is the math program. When i switched back to my other school i was so behind in math that it wasn't even funny. But everything else at that school was absolutely perfect!!! Good Job Soos Creek!
