I attended Thornton High School for all 4 years of high school…read more This school has amazing teachers. While attending Thornton, the teachers always offered amazing support and we're always there for the students. It was obvious that every one was there because they loved their job. Honestly, this applies to all the staff at Thornton. All of the counselor at THS were/are amazing at helping the students with everything from college to stress to social problems. The office staff is fun and incredibly helpful. Even the librarians are incredibly amazing. I attended THS while Principal Skrobela was/is in office and she is so amazing with the students and staff alike. This school has so much spirt too. It's hard to no get involved with something on campus. The food is pretty good too!! Many of the clubs use the food at the school as a part of thief club, so this school does offer some pretty good food. The community at THS is alike no other. This school is so diverse that students are able to learn more than just the syllabus, but everyone is faced with life. Everyone walks out of THS knowing how to deal with the community and the life ahead of them. Tons of clubs are offered at THS and there is something for everyone to do. It is super easy to get involved at this school and the community as a whole is incredibly supportive of everyone. In addition to all of this, the honors program offered at THS is this International Baccalaureate (IB) program. This is an amazing program that can help bump students ahead in life and can help students receive college credits. If a student doesn't want to go with the IB path, THS is also conveniently located right next to the Bollman Technical Center where students can take classes that are offered to help with real world applications (such as medical field classes, graphic design, movie production, car classes, etc). THS also has a great program for special needs. Many clubs and students are in programs to work and integrate everyone in the community. These programs are super fun and they definitely help to make everyone feel welcome. THS is just an amazing school and my high school couldn't have gone any better.

Update! The new athletic director is top notch. Thank goodness they replaced Michael T and put…read moreCameron Browne in the position. He is responsive and kind. Another update is they really need to refresh the counseling dept. I've never been ignored so much in my life as I have been by these counselors. I've also heard my kids and their friends say the same kinds of things. They are just not good. If your kid is a go getter, they will do well at East. But I think all types of kids need attention and help too, and the quiet ones fall through the cracks here. Again, something I've dealt with in our family as well as hearing it from other families.

I am a grandparent of a Goddard student, who started in the "bridge" program (at ~3 years old) and…read morehas advanced to the pre-K program (and learned so much along the way). He has adored all of his teachers and made some very dear friends. We love the active daily communication (the pictures are a highlight in my day). A special shout out to Ms Gina, Ms Ky, Ms Mariela, and Ms Lydia, who have each shown him such patience and love and manage to provide a happy place for each and every child. The on-site owner and administrators are amazing too--very accommodating and organized--and the curriculum is extremely educational and engaging for him.

I can't say enough good things about Goddard at Stapleton. This review is based on my experience…read morewith Goddard versus another daycare in the neighborhood. At Goddard, the owners are onsite and are personally involved. Lance does a great job and makes everyone feel welcome. Every single day we are greeted by staff when we arrive and when we pick kids up at the end of the day. Here's some other things we get at Goddard that we did not get at the other daycare. Goddard provides snacks. Goddard is on their own schedule. They do not follow the district schedule which means that as a parent you're not constantly scrambling for all the teacher work days, spring and fall break, snow days and early closing and late starts due to the weather. This was a frequent issue at the other daycare we used. Goddard provides date nights for parents. It's extremely affordable daycare on select Friday nights so parents can have a night out. Goddard does an annual holiday concert for all grade levels. This is an amazing and adorable experience to see all the kids perform. Goddard does a formal graduation for the kids who move on to kindergarten. This is the cutest ceremony that every parent cherishes. Goddard does lots of little extra things like a Fall Festival on the weekend where the kids and parents come by and get free pumpkins and they have lots of games and activities. I can go on but these are the bigger things that we've noticed. For us the biggest plus was how flexible Goddard has been with our family. While they have policies and rules as everyone school should have, they also understand the circumstances of the real world and family life and have been very accommodating to my family's situation. We love Goddard and can't recommend them enough.

I volunteer at Wyatt once a week, as part of the Reading Partners program. Every Wednesday our…read moregroup of adult volunteers spends about 40-45 minutes with a group of six graders, reading books and spending time together. The school is a beautiful building! Very tall ceilings, well maintained. The main thoroughfare is pretty impressive as you walk into the space. When there's kids walking around in between classes, the echo is impressive. Since I'm only there for a volunteer program, I can't speak to the teachers or the classes. However, my student that I read with is extremely bright and her teacher encourage her to reach as much as possible, for school and for fun. Really cool building and really cool kids.

I recently taught here, and it was a decent school for students, a horrible school for teachers…read more Some admin members talk to staff in such a condescending way you leave feeling bad about yourself as a teacher and sometimes a person. They make sure you know how replaceable you are by constantly firing people over the smallest things. On the last day of school, they fired four people, which meant they didn't have enough time to find a job for the next year, since the teaching hiring season is in February. Not only did they fire left and right but teachers also quit in the middle of the year because of how bad it is. HR is the CEO's mother and the librarian is the principles mother, if that isn't a big enough conflict of interest, I don't know what is. There are also cameras in each classroom so you are constantly being watched. Most of the lessons are so heavily controlled by admin that it's as if they are scripted and if you don't follow the script your classroom phone might ring with instructions to get back on script. There is no room for teacher ideas or creativity, the way they want you to teach is so robotic, there's no point of getting a degree. I would have put up with the low pay for another year because I loved my kids but the disrespect and micromanagement was the reason I left. Unless you are desperate don't work here.
