This school is NOTHING like the other review given. That parent must have been fed the wrong…read moreinformation. To address their points individually: 1. "The teachers don't teach and cry all day long ranting and raving about their far left liberal agendas" This is simply not true. I have gone to this school since 2015, before this person wrote this review. I have NEVER heard of some "far left liberal" teacher "ranting and raving" about their beliefs. This school is for education, and that is exactly what you get when you go to this school. 2. "They shoot students down that have even a slightly differing opinion and even have the audacity to hand out questionnaires to students questioning them on their religious and political viewpoints so they can target those they don't agree with while preaching supposed 'tolerance!'" Again, this is simply not true. Our school has a large variety of students with different opinions, and teachers do not shoot people down for having different opinions. In fact, most teachers encourage students to make arguments against what they are saying because it shows that they are THINKING and ENGAGED in the lesson. We have everyone from LGBTQ+ leftists to far right Trump supporters, and everyone is encouraged and allowed to have their own opinions. 3. "Does this type of thing remind anyone of Nazi Germany (who actually KNOWS REAL HISTORY) much?" This is simply RIDICULOUS. Comparing a BVSD school to Nazi Germany? Does anyone else see how completely overdramatic and absurd this comparison is? 4. "Secondly, there is ZERO moral compass. Both sexes are allowed in the bathrooms and are often having sex in the bathrooms on the toilets loudly moaning (gross), girls walk around with a bra and underwear with no purpose, drugged and dumbed down." Again, as someone who has gone to this school for YEARS, this is simply not true. Bathrooms are separated by sex, male and female, just like any other school. Sexual contact, of course, occurs in this school every once in a while, just as it does at any other school, but that does not lower the quality of the school. Teenagers are horny and will try to have sex: that is a fact of life. The important thing is that the staff does everything in their power to stop this from occurring on school grounds AND encourages that if students decide to have sex outside of school, they do it safely and consensually. And to respond to what this person thinks girls walk around in, this is, again, completely baseless and untrue. Girls dress like every other high schooler, and our dress code prevents showing private parts, including male and female chests, and requires that undergarments are covered. I'd say that's pretty reasonable. The "drugged and dumbed down" comment is, again, incorrect. Yes, there is drug use, just like any other high school, and Monarch staff does everything in their power to prevent it from occurring and educates students about the dangers of doing such things. That is as much as you can expect them to do 5. "My child was bullied by staff and students and had to listen to negative political rants all day from more that one teacher about the president and was also humiliated and shamed for using critical thinking skills that are SUPPOSED to be used!!!" I'm sorry that that was your perception of whatever situation occurred. I'm sure that the staff here have made many mistakes, again, just like any other high school, but I HIGHLY doubt that ANY of the staff here "bullied" your child. Secondly, political conversations in social studies classes are common, whether you see them as negative or positive. Last year, these were especially prevalent because of the controversy surrounding the presidency, and I think that the teachers handled this very well. It is difficult to facilitate these sorts of difficult conversations, but it is very important. I, again, highly doubt that anyone was humiliated or shamed for their opinion. As I said before, there are a large variety of political opinions here at this school, and everyone is encouraged to express those in a respectful and civil manner. 6. "We are actively trying to move our kids to another high school! It literally makes me ill to think of them going back here!" Good. Once you go to another high school, you will regret taking Monarch for granted. We are an incredible school and your twisted negativity does not belong here. We preach acceptance, diversity, and kindness, no matter one's race, gender, sexual orientation, or political views and opinions. I respectfully disagree with your opinions and do not appreciate you trashing our school. To anyone still reading, I would highly recommend Monarch. We are, of course, flawed, just as any other school is, but we are also one of the best high schools in BVSD. Your child will get 1-on-1 help from their counselor to find the right classes for them, will be able to get help from their teachers, and most importantly, will LEARN.

The teacher for the program is amazing and does an excellent job with the performances. She encourages the students to be "family" and that is what I believe makes this an incredible program and school. Amazing how one teacher has such a positive influence on her students.

Things happen in any school nothing is perfect but I believe Monarch High School provides a positive environment and encourages students to be successful.

If you think that Ralston Valley is a good school, then you are sadly mistaken. The previous year I…read morespent at this school was the worst year of my life. Some of the girls in my choir class were being mean to me and when I told my choir teacher about it she literally defended them and made up excuses. She was completely okay with the fact that those girls were making me feel miserable. If you were thinking about joining the choir program at Ralston Valley, think again and join it at any other school. The current choir teacher at Ralston Valley picks favorites and defends mean girl behavior. She cares more about her and the Ralston Valley choir programs image than the well being of her students. The administration at this school is also horrendous. They do absolutely nothing about bullying and make up excuses to defend the bullies, just like the choir teacher.

The principal has repeatedly shown that she does not care about the students' wellbeing. Whenever…read morestaff members try to provide support for these students, she dismisses their efforts without a second thought. Rather than addressing important concerns, she retaliates and damages the lives of the staff she is supposed to protect. This school has so many students--how long do you think she can continue her neglectful actions without something tragic happening? What will she do when that day comes? Hold a school-wide meeting? Blame an imaginary group of bullies? Or maybe they did exist--who knows? Clearly, she doesn't, considering she's nearly allowed multiple students to die under her watch. What do you think will happen at that meeting? The friends of the student will mourn their loss while the principal feigns sympathy, pretending she's innocent and hasn't contributed to the tragedy? It's disgusting. She is twisted, and I will not stay silent until she is removed. Jeffco has failed its staff repeatedly, denying them adequate medical care and fair compensation, leaving them on the brink of homelessness. But beyond that, they've failed your children. If you're a parent, you may want to reconsider sending your child to this school, as it's clear the principal couldn't care less if a student drops dead in the halls. At least she treats the staff poorly, so perhaps that's the only thing she cares about--her own agenda and money. I urge you to report her to any relevant authority because this is not okay. I no longer feel safe walking these halls, knowing that my principal could care less if I were dead or alive, and that my nurse is being harassed by her.

Last school year, Broomfield High School allowed our 9th-grade son to play video games in class, on…read morehis school-issued Chromebook, nearly every day for the first three quarters of the year. In the fourth quarter, the school allowed him to skip class 63 times--yes, 63, not a typo--all the while he was inside the school building (cafeteria, library), continuing to play video games, hour after hour, day after day, using BHS technology. He ended his freshman year at Broomfield High School with over 70 missing assignments and two failed classes. The school did not initiate contact to discuss any concern for the direction our son was heading, attendance, rule violations, discipline (there was literally none), possible interventions or supports--as though the staff was unaware, or unconcerned. We, the parents, drove the attempts at resolution, with little response from the school. "This school is teaching kids a reality that exists nowhere," said one BHS staff member, toward the end of the year. Though this is our home high school, and close to our home, we will not send our son--or our other two children--to Broomfield High School.
