Our new principal is fantastic and I've been really pleased with the level of family and community engagement. I highly recommend this school.

Both of my boys have attended Shelton Elementary and it seems to get better and better every year!…read moreThe kids have so many opportunities here, they have wonderful programs to keep kids moving, they don't over do it with fundraisers , and last year the kids even got to get slimed by Nickelodeon for their National Day of play. The staff is extremely friendly, teachers are very hands on and they are currently operating with an app called Class Dojo that lets you see pics of your kids throughout the day, get reports on their behavior, and can message the teachers all in one place. When it comes to Elementary schools, this one takes 1st place. It really is an amazing school the proof is in the reports. A+ on my list!

I graduated Golden View 2 years ago. What can I say about this school to sum up my love for it…read more Golden view changed me both as a student and as a person. I learned what it meant to have virtue. The teachers are the best people you will ever meet. Their joy and wonder for life and learning inspires me to this day. However, this school is not for the weak of heart. It takes grit and determination to do well with their classical education. But if you commit, you will learn what it truly means to be human. My love for learning flourished as did my love for the world around me. I will send my kids here one day. And hopefully be apart of the Golden View family forever.

From the owner: Golden View Classical Academy is modeled after the most successful classical and liberal arts…read moreschools in Colorado. Golden View Classical Academy offers a robust and traditional liberal arts and sciences curriculum, to include literature, history, science, math, art, music, and physical education. In the elementary school, students are taught to read using an explicit phonics program with a focus on grammar and spelling, along with cursive handwriting. Saxon and Singapore math are strategically sequenced to take advantage of the strengths of each program. An early exposure to Latin and Greek roots is followed by a formal Latin sequence in grades 6-9 in order to enhance the student's vocabulary, spelling, and command of the English language. In the upper grades, instruction includes a course in rhetoric, the use of primary source documents, Socratic seminar, and the study of classical literature that has withstood the test of time. Golden View Classical Academy also includes a special focus on Western Civilization, US History, and the principles of America's model of government and free-market economic system.

I'm greatful for being able to count on each one and know they will be there. I'm thankful my sister recommended this school to me I would definitely recommend to anyone else. I also like that they take covid seriously. It's reassuring. They are always concerned about your kids well being and accommodate to any needs you may have. The best encounters I've had is with Kathy in the office, the principal, Kathy the nurse and Mrs Fish, Mr Ritz, and Mrs Carri.

My children transferred to Welchester from another school in November and we're immediately…read moreembraced and loved on. The teachers are excellent, compassionate, care about every one of their students and give their all to the kids. Our son's teacher used to teach at a Gifted and Talented school but she chose to come to Welchester this year and was absolutely amazing for her class. Not only did her class raise their test scores but they worked on STEM activities during class and raised money for a Friendship Bench for the school. My daughter's teacher was similarly excellent in the way she interacted with the students and they all adored her. The principal is exactly the type of principal you long for a school to have: Involved, knows every kid by name, will sit down to talk with a troubled child and get down on their level, and is not afraid to step into a difficult situation if necessary. She is fabulous and sets the tone for the entire school. As parents, my husband and I are thrilled to be a part of this school community and we totally recommend it.

Colorado Early Learning Center is where you should enroll your child. We moved our daughter here…read moreand she has learned so much in such a short period of time! I love the fact that there's a routine to the children's day. Everyone eats a healthy breakfast (family style), there's circle time, read alouds, outdoor fun, units of study (right now my daughter's learning about water), nap, lunch, snack, art . . . You get the picture. Upon enrolling your child, the teacher does a one-on-one to establish goals for your child. We receive a daily report of what she ate, what she learned and what times her diapers were changed. This is huge! There's also a big sense of community. For example, the director had movie night with pop corn and goodies to provide families without air conditioning a moment of reprieve. Every teacher in the schoolhouse knows the children there. I could go on and on. This place is awesome!
