But as the years went bye I have come to really adore fossil. I also did swim on the guys swim team all four years, and that really helped me make friends. But I'm also happy I had a lot of non swimming friends the same. People seem to get along pretty well at fossil. I'll miss it for sure.

When I was searching for a school for my children, I didn't just consider the curriculum, the…read morecommute, or the demographics. I asked myself a bigger question: What kind of adults do I want my children to become? With that in mind, I chose a school that would teach them integrity, resilience, and the ability to accomplish and create in every stage of life. Ridgeview offers more than an education--it offers education for life. As they often say, "At Ridgeview, we do hard things." These challenges aren't for their own sake, but to help every child discover and develop their full potential.

I went here from 9th grade until I graduated high school. I made great friends and had a few truly…read moreexcellent, inspirational teachers, but I also had multiple teachers (particularly ones that taught history and government related classes) who were overwhelmingly biased and even frequently told blatant lies or made up stories to further their own narratives about our world. I would frequently come home after history class and feel a need to fact check my teachers; more often than not I would find that they were thoroughly wrong on the topics I had researched myself. Also at Ridgeview there is a culture of conformity. Self expression often seems discouraged and students can be severely punished for "disrespecting teachers" when in truth all that happened were mere disagreements. And, although respect towards teachers is a paramount rule within this school, teachers frequently disrespect and make fun of students; the principal himself has presented ad hominem attacks against students during debates about things like paternity leave, the black lives matter movement, or the wage gap. I have nothing against tongue and cheek banter, but what I'm talking about here is beyond that. Student council at this school is for all intents and purposes run by the administration. As such students have no real say in the frequent changes that come to the school. The current principal seems to want the school to be a place for deeply conservative minded young people to become even more staunch in their views, rather than a place for real discourse, debate, and discussion. Also this place abstains from teaching any kind of sex-ed, which I believe leads to a deeply misinformed student body when it comes to sex and sexual identity. The school claims to be a place for students who like a challenge or enjoy difficult and truly stimulating classes and conversation. If that describes your student however, the IB program at Poudre, or the AP programs at Fossil or Rocky would be better, in my opinion, and would probably set up your student to be more likely to get into top colleges with top scholarships. DISCLAIMER: I did not attend Ridgeview in middle school or in the lower grades. My review is based in my experiences predominantly in the high school. Please do not judge their middle school based on what I've said. Students typically seem pretty satisfied with their middle school experience here.

Saint Joseph School also excels academically and there are many opportunities for parents and friends of the school to get involved which leads to invested families and a community of support!

I was told by the vice principle that they would discipline my child how they saw fit even if I disagreed. They have a pattern of disciplining some children and not others. They treat affluent parents with money drastically different from single and/or poor parent. Every time I have tried to seek help from the principle I leave with no resolution and no intent to resolve any issues. There is a reason why this school has such low ratings academically. They strive to have less then half of there students (in certain grades) at the state standard age appropriate reading, writing, and math levels. There have been days that I have had to take my child out of school because he was not safe. On one such occasion there was a substitute and the children were kicking and throwing large objects (chairs, dry erase boards, etc) around the room. They were also hitting and pushing each other and the substitute did nothing to stop or prevent this behavior. He was texting on his personal cell phone during the majority of the 2 hours I was there. When I notified the administrative staff of the inappropriate events taking place in the class, they did nothing. This is the same staff who had my child go through a 3 day disciplinary consequence for cutting in the lunch line. However when another student drew explicit pictures and told a detailed story to my son of how he was going to violently assault him there was NO disciplinary action taken. The morals and values being taught in this school are disturbing. There are also drunk and disorderly people who like to hangout at the park located right next to the playground. On several occasions I have witnessed them trying to interact with a child and/or children and the playground attendants were completely unaware of what was going on. I was told by the vice principle that there is nothing we (the parents) could do about them because it is a public park. Which is completely not true, you can write letters to the mayor, legislators, etc. That is just another example of how they treat parents that they categorize as poor, or unintelligent. I wish someone would have warned me about this school. We are going to have to move to get him out of this school.
