Grant Beacon is the worst school I've sent my kids to. I followed one of my students around for a day and was so embarrassed to have my child there. I felt like the student ran the school. Students were so disrespectful to the teachers. The teachers do not get paid enough to handle these kids. If you want your child to play sports you should look else where. The sports program is awful. The coach only allows upper class to play. They do not teach sportsmanship. The team will be winning by 40 plus points and the coach will not play anyone but the starters still. When winning by this much, its the less skilled opportunity to gain confidence and skill. Grant Beacon does not believe in teaching athletes the actual game on how to win with great sportsmanship and leadership. Bullying is huge. My child has been bullied so much he is scared to say anything. I wanted to support my neighborhood school but sad to say kids are not learning here.

One of the sweetest, most nurturing neighborhood schools in the city of Denver. Both the traditional and Montessori teachers are incredible. Many of them have been at the school for more than 10 years. The principal is a former Montessori teacher and knows the strengths of both forms of education. Her leadership has been a light in the public school system. There are very few schools that do both traditional and Montessori education this well. Both of my children have thrived, love school, feel comfortable and safe in this environment.

2 kids here currently. 9 th and 11thOur son is thriving with sports and academics.He enjoys his teachers. My daughter will attend this fall. Anxious to see how she does academically. She is in sports as well and excited to see her play.
