Cottonwood Creek was built in 1996 and has been a TEA Exemplary campus since its inception. We have approximately 480 students in grades K-5.

Cottonwood Creek has partnered with our PTO and CISD to provide state-of-the-art technology for our students. Our students are given many opportunities to utilize technology on a daily basis as they strive to become global participants in our society. In addition we are a Thinking Maps campus. The CCE staff has been trained in this method of instruction and thinking. As you visit the classrooms of Cottonwood Creek you will observe daily use of Thinking Maps and an integration of technology in the learning environment.

Our school motto Opening Minds Holding Hands Touching Hearts is also the philosophy of our campus. We know that providing engaging learning experiences for our students is our first priority. Our teachers are highly skilled caring professionals who are dedicated to providing rich learning experiences for each of our students as we open minds of learners in the 21st century. We also believe that learning is a partnership between the teachers students and families of our school community. Our staff and families have vowed to hold hands in support of our students and their learning. We are also committed to touch hearts as we make Cottonwood Creek a place where friendships are formed and lasting memories are made.
