Mountain Vista High School - Best gym floor ever at this school! So shiny and it has a green stripe!

Vista has some great teachers, good clubs, and an outstanding head counselor. But the…read moreadministration is awful, specifically one of the VPs and the principal who seams to know everyone's name but isn't really anyone's pal. They fail to force out bad teachers. They marginalize advanced kids who don't fit into their cookie-cutter curriculum. They don't give counselors enough authority, so every request that's out-of-the-ordinary is a 3 month undefined process that can be vetoed at any time. They pay lip service to "caring for and respecting the individual," but they're committed to preserving the status quo at the expense of the individual -- except when IEPs for delayed kids require individual accommodation; then no expense is too great and no exception is too unreasonable. If your kid is precocious and defines themselves by something other than a varsity sport, then do your family a favor and check out concurrent enrollment options through community college and an online charter school like Colorado Preparatory Academy (CPA). CPA gives your kid unrestricted access to sit-down community college classes, and the State pays for it. The courses are taught by instructors who hold at least a Masters in their field, and the courses count toward college. Also, those courses count as two high school semesters for each one college semester: so double high school credit. Your kid can earn enough State-funded college credits to enter CU, CSU, Mines, or Metro as a college junior while still participating in activities through Vista or any other high school. My kids took advantage of that wonderful option and have never been happier or more engaged.

Mt. Vista is one of the top public High Schools in the region, and my two boys who are attending…read morethe school have had a wonderful experience overall. There are great teachers who genuinely care and are engaged, wonderful sports programs, and an overall supportive environment. Since Mt. Vista has an official STEM degree, they also have great facilities and equipment that offer kids unique and fun learning opportunities. Good kids overall, well mannered and come from solid homes. I highly recommend over the other High Schools in the area.

Let me start by saying the staff and kids were very friendly and, as we were there for my sons…read morebasketball game, we felt welcome. PTA and parent volunteers were great as well. Even the coaches that filled in for missing referees were unbiased and great to the opposing players. Now, the reason for the 3 stars. The building is old and dark, giving the feeling of a prison. Very few windows and lots of concrete blocks and bricks. Bathrooms closed due to vandalism (signs on the doors saying so,) Very narrow hallways and just doesn't seem like a great facility to send your kids to, considering the school facilities in the area. Not sure what you do with an old facility, other than tear it down and build something more conducive to learning and keeping kids in for 7 hours a day.

Located in the heart of Littleton is a large building resembling a penetentiary. Rising concrete…read morewalls and sparce windows are the prison-like makeup for this institution of academia; Heritage High School. Being an Araphoe High School grad myself , and by way of virtue, I initially was forced to condemn those that walked its halls. Due to renovations at the Arapahoe pool, I was forced to conduct today's practice at Heritage, our main rival. Tom, the Heritage coach, was more than accommodating for the free pool time. HHS no longer uses salt as a cleaning agent and has replaced salt with chlorine. Huge improvement, I'll take green hair over puke anyday. Other than that, I find Heritage to be an architectual nightmare for kids to be able to enjoy learning. I fear that if I answered a trig question wrong, a Dept. of Corrections officer would come and tase me. Don't tase me bro!!! So kudos to those that graduated, especially the one's without permanent psychological damage.

I go to Arapahoe High School and I have had not the best time there. The building itself is nice…read more Most of the teachers that do work at Arapahoe are self entitled idiots. They barely can do their jobs and constantly have an attitude. which is understandable because the kids who also go there are mean and hurtful people. the amount of bullying that has taken place is insane. Both head administrators could careless about what happens in that school. They are more worried about getting paid then kids mental health. I have spoken to many groups of people in all grades about how they don't feel safe or feel they can't be themselves because of the bullying that happens. Those who are themselves have been bullied to the point they switch schools or self harm. I can only name a good selection of teachers who I actually trust and can express myself to. If you're deciding to send your kid to Arapahoe please think wisely about it and understand what kind of a school you're sending your child to. there has been so many rapist at arapahoe that still go there to this day. The school school is so concerned about those vaping instead of worrying about those kids whose mental health and life are being ruined because of the others at the school. I have voiced my opinion many times to the school and nothing has been said or shown to be fixed at the school. So please coming from an 11th grade student.

Honestly... AHS is awesome. I am 1972 grad…read more.. My son was a 2009 grad... Although there is a time difference from when my son and I were there... AHS has always been a progressive Littleton school preparing the students for higher education. I did notice as time was a going on... the biggest difference was the amount of entitlement of some students as the area around AHS grew and became more affluent. As a student ... become involved in the school and it's activities... The reward can be yours.
