Shaffer Elementary food is the best, because of their pizza, milk and snack. I like pizza because…read morethe crusts are so crunchy, another reason is because of the topping of the pizza. Each topping has a different taste, for example galaxy pizza. I like the milk for two reasons, the first reason is because, it is as fresh as a farm milk.The second reason is because, they always have a question on the cover, and you get to anwser it on a special website called trumoo.com. I like the snack for a reason, the reason is they let you buy Cheetos, Doritos.

As a student at this school, I can only say that this school is fabulous! All of the teachers (K-5)…read moreare magnificent at teaching kids math, writing, reading, science, social studies and more. The school offers other curriculum for students who feel they need to be challenged. Lastly, Mr. Brasher (the principle) is responsible and trustworthy making the school a great environment.

My son attended this school for one year as an eighth grader after having moved from another state…read moreinto CO during the summer. In my opinion, it was a great fit for him after having had multiple life changes over the previous few years. (divorce, multiple moves, so on) The small class sizes here allow teachers to gain a perspective on students that a typical classroom, quite simply, probably wouldn't allow. I thoroughly appreciated the insights teachers provided during P/T conferences. They gave not only academic but social insights into my son's life that I would not have otherwise had. (Don't tell him I said that ) Having said all of that, he decided to go to elsewhere for his high school years. Whether or not it's a good decision for him remains to be seen. In any case, I would urge parents (and their students!) to consider Collegiate Academy. As parents we must help our kids decide what is best for them at a given time. The beauty of Jeffco is this ability to have options. We haven't had this option presented so cleanly to us in any other school system. Please check them out.

If you are thinking of a school in Jeffco! Look no further. We were in Columbines area schools and…read morethey are good but the classes are so big. My daughter could not get the help she needed. We changed to collegiate and a world of a difference happened. She is no longer on IEP at grade level or above all from changing schools and how they taught. She only has 15 people in her class. The staff teachers admin principal all have been amazing. Can not recommend this school enough. It was like a private school with out the cost.

This school gets great scores academically. However, it is located in an affluent area with very…read moreinvested parents who raise over-achievers. It would be difficult for a principal not to guide this school to great scores. The two stars are because the intermediate (grades 4-6) underachieves in its behavioral expectations. It's ironic that the school administration prides itself on its great scores but doesn't honor the students who achieve them. Rather, it's the top athletes and popular kids who rule the roost and the bookish, kind children who are pushed aside. Even worse, those who bully are not held accountable by the principal. We've seen multiple instances of this. We know families who have left the school, who have stopped using the bus and who have turned to home schooling because their children were bullied at Bradford and the principal didn't manage the situation to avoid recurrence. If you send your child here, he or she will be well educated. However, there's an excellent chance they will be put down or teased by bullies and you won't get anywhere with the principal to stop it. PS. The primary school (grades 1-3) is the opposite and is good academically as well as behaviorally.

Even through all of this new 'normal' stuff they have done a fabulous job keeping everyone safe, in the know, and putting their students/families and staff first. I would highly recommend this school to everyone!
