The administration seems more focused on enforcing pointless rules than actually supporting students. Teachers are hit or miss—some genuinely care, but many just seem burned out or uninterested. Communication is terrible, especially when it comes to grades or important updates. The mental health resources are basically non-existent, and the school culture overall feels toxic and cliquey. If you're expecting support, creativity, or growth here, lower your expectations. A lot needs to change. Unfortunately, my experience with Principal Jeff McMurry was disappointing. From the start, their attitude came across as arrogant and dismissive. Rather than fostering a welcoming and respectful environment, he often speaks in a condescending tone, making both students and parents feel unheard and undervalued. A principal should lead by example—showing respect, humility, and care for the school community—but that was not what I witnessed at Longmont High School.

Last year the PE coach was telling little girls that he can see where they live by going into the records and then the next day not only my daughter but he told a couple other little girls why do you sit in your room like that I could see you through your window and they still let him work there all it is is my daughter has to stay away from him and she got a a last year I don't think this man should be around any children.

MVE is absolutely amazing. We could not be happier with our children's experiences. We have two students there currently. It keeps getting more incredible each day. The staff is extremely positive, the administrator is incredible-develops strong relationships with students and follows through with what she has and keeps clear expectations. There are many programs for students to be involved in from enrichment to Robotics, to reading clubs, writing clubs and a Geek Squad to help with technology. It is truly a shining star in our public education system. Everyone works together to support kids.
