The principal is fabulous this year - I have seen him more this first semester than I ever did with Toliver. SOO happy we got a new one! My kiddo loves it and told me last night she never wants to change school. She is on an IEP and her supported therapist are so amazing. I have to say I am so happy we have stuck it out and LOVE it. It is such a cute neighborhood school! Oh and the PTO staff is amazing!!!

"After 12 years and two children at Challenge School, I couldn't be more grateful. The small K-8…read moresetting and diverse community foster lifelong friendships. The teachers are exceptionally dedicated and the academic preparation is top-tier. The accelerated math and focus on research/writing gave my daughter a huge advantage in her current IB high school program. While there are no formal sports or band, they had a strong musical program, and the kids stay active in competitive sports outside of school. It's a special community that I highly recommend, especially if you are concerned your child will be bored at the neighborhood school."

This school is amazing for students. The fast-paced classes are often hands-on and creative…read more Students are challenged daily to achieve to the best of their abilities. "Immersion" happens twice a year, and involves a few days of "deep diving" into non-traditional subjects to accommodate the way gifted children tend to learn. The topics change each time, so there is a wide berth of opportunities. The take-home workload often matches the pace of the classrooms, and parent/adult involvement is important to the overall success of children as they grow and evolve. Our family has had a fantastic experience here.

My daughter went to this school, and while there were many many good teachers and students some…read morewere horrible. The kindergarten teacher my daughter got actively bullied my daughter over lack of ability to read. My daughter is still bitter, luckily that teacher retired, she was never punished for her behavior. Luckily her first grade teachers actually cared and she was quickly diagnosed with dyslexia. The over all lay out works well, and there were many good teachers. The gifted teacher was amazing and made my daughters life and my sons life much easier. Over all the school was a good place for my kids to grow up, but it still leaves a bad taste in my mouth that the teacher who builder my daughter didn't face any punishment.

I am so surprised this school allows the receptionist they have for hire represent the staff here…read more She's rude, nasty acting, ALWAYS frowned up, and careless about nicely greeting people that comes inn. My child has been here for 2 years now and Ms.Rhonda (the main secretary) has always been nasty and rude to not just me but other parents as well. One parent loudly asked her one day "why do you always pick on me & act nasty when I'm just walking my son to breakfast? Just stop it!" I can tell the secretary was embarrassed from the confrontation and everyone around looked like they wanted to applaud that mom. It felt like she took up for us all in a sense. The teachers are resourceful and nice, I'm just baffled how the principle allows someone with such a nasty demeanor represent the staff. I'm sure there are more complaints if people had the time to write a review about it.

My son currently goes to Orchard Valley. We recently moved to Colorado from Seattle, where my son…read morewent to an in-home day care center. So finding a nice day care center was important for us. We are so impressed with Orchard Valley. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Each of the classrooms have bright colors and lots of toys. Communication is great, as they send a weekly email and even daily updates on how your child did. The one and only reason this isn't a five star review is there seems to be staffing issues. I know this isn't the teachers' fault, but from time to time they struggle to have enough teachers in each classroom and can sometimes combine classes if a teacher is sick or has a day off. Otherwise, I would highly recommend Orchard Valley Learning Center.

I do not recommend enrolling your children at Orchard Valley. The director is irresponsable,…read moreunorganized, and unwilling to make an effort to correct her mistakes. While, ideally the school director would be competent enough to resolve any issues on her own, that is unfortunately not the case here. In addition, corporate office is set up for employees and has no contacts for parents of the students. I was beyond disappointed and both of my children were miserable. In response... That was actually not the case at all. I was told on Friday morning by Janie that there was "definitely availability" for both of my children. I explained our special circumstances and that we needed Orchard Valley specifically because of one of their employees. I was told that I would be able to start my children the next week and there was no mention of a deposit. When I called Monday morning, I was told that there were no spaces, it was my fault, and I was hung up on. So yes, my review is accurate, and proven more so by the fact that no one involved has taken any responsibility or offered any solution, yet they have found the time to try to defend themselves on a public forum. If there are any specific accusations that you "Jason" would like to deny I would be happy to address them... Bottom line... I've never even been in direct contact with this facility, or in contact at all with their parent company, and as you can see they are not at all interested in helping their parents or students.
