As an artist I find the move to sports and away from the arts very disturbing. I think the children should be allowed to experience both. My Mom and I loved the home tour on Mother's Day weekend even if we did walk our legs off doing it. The houses were wonderful. A big thank you to all that attended and donated to this very worthy cause.

I have been extremely pleased with Steele Elementary School for my children. Not only are the…read moreteachers and faculty fantastic, they strive for excellence. Furthermore, there is an unusually strong, yet refreshing, parent community that stands behind and supports this school. I am proud to say that I am one of those active parents and I would not change it any other way. As Co-Chair for the Wash Park Home Tour 2012 and 2013, whereby proceeds go to Steele Elementary and Denver's Education Outreach Program, this event is a great way to bring the community together with this great school that will be celebrating its 100 Anniversary in 2013. Thank you Steele for everything!

Sandoval Elementary seems to be one of the best elementary school choices in the Highlands area…read more The DPS system does not have an excellent reputation. My son has been attending Sandoval a few years now. Sandoval is a little strange. The classes are grouped so for example 1,2 and 3rd graders are all lumped together for 3 years. I did question this method, but the bright side is that it creates some stability in class mates and teachers. It's half Spanish speaking which I feel is a mixed blessing as well. My son is learning two languages but I am afraid he may end up a "jack of all trades master of none" but the verdict is still out. The school is kind of hard to get into, so I think the parents and kids seem to take learning a little more seriously at this school.

It's such an inspiring group of educators and families who truly believe in the school's mission. Our child feels supported, seen, and excited to come to school every day--she loves learning, creating, and being herself here. DDES doesn't just focus on academics; they're helping kids learn how to be good people and make the world a better place. The teachers foster curiosity, kindness, and confidence in a way that feels both intentional and joyful. It's a place that values character, collaboration, and real-world learning--and it shows in the way the kids talk about what they're doing. We couldn't be happier to be part of this community.

To a person everyone there is warm and kind and the curriculum is excellent and extremely well thought out. Communication is terrific and they make things easy on parents as well (flexible drop off / pick up times, lunch and snack included, they even keep and wash the kids' water bottles for them). My only regret is that we will only have one year at Fisher!

I wanted to wait until the end of the year to review my experience here. Considering my previous…read morepoor DPS elementary experience, I didn't want to make a hasty decision based on the obvious. The obvious being accelerated academic program(s), stellar Principal and teachers, and attention to each child's needs via a tremendously effective magnet program within the schools regular program...amongst other things. Cory stands head and shoulders above many (most) of the DPS elementary schools in the state. Outside of the reasons stated above, the PTA at Cory goes above and beyond. They are aware of, and embrace, new families - open to participation and suggestions for events, and parent involvement. The teachers are aware of the varying levels of academic prowess for children ages 5-10 and utilize this as a teaching tool, not as a hindrance for the above and below average student. The "average" student is not a role model for the outstanding students. Nor are the esl students needs placed above any other needs in any given classroom. Each child is taught at their level consistently. A safe community where each child is respected and embraced for what they bring to the environment - what a concept~

At the time of writing this, my son has been at Park Hill Elementary for going on three months, and I cannot say enough good things about the staff, the administrators, and the school in general. There are a ton of kids that attend PHE, but they manage the chaos well. The parents are encouraged to participate, and communication has been exemplary. The only downside is that there is no A/C in the building yet, but that is in the works. Also, those little buggers keep spreading colds around and bringing them home. Other than that, great stuff!
