Worst three years of my life. Sent two of my kids here and the staff was horrible as well as the principal. They took no accountability of what was going on. Had the assistant principal harass my daughter because I made a complaint reported it to the district and got laughed at reported it to HR nothing was done. Everyone there is somehow connected to a higher up. Take your kids somewhere else.

I am a staff member at the school. If you are thinking of applying to work at Elkhart in ANY capacity, STAY AWAY!! You will be put through a lot of scrutiny by the current principal. She was promoted three years ago. Since she took over the school, the test schools have been steadily declining. Teachers are extremely unhappy. Close to 40 staff members from paras to teachers left the building over a two-year period. If you are disliked by the principal, she will do everything to distroy your career, reputation, and your self-esteem. The school transformed from a vibrant, happy, and inclusive space into something lifeless—like the Walking Dead.

Personally (& i speak for alot of the CO26 alumni) there was a time where everything was fine , but as things changed around the school from freshman year we started to realize that the principal was weird.. she never engaged with students, and she was never around. Alot of the staff was weird too, also disrespectful. I appreciate a small portion of the staff and teachers but the rest of them were just awful. This school has great opportunities but the admin only cares about what you do or wanna do with your future when its already too late. All the good staff is unfortunately leaving or retiring and theres gonna be a huge wave of long term subs again (which made alot of our sophomore year terrible and we almost slacked off during a REQUIRED CORE CLASS) i wish the best of luck to whoever attends next. Theres also a scandal almost every week and it usually involves a teacher. The yearbook people also dont do the best job, and all the students are “cliqued” by their supposed social status and high ego of them thinking they are better than everyone else. This school also undergoes a large range of messy situations with students and admins do nothing about it or handle the situation when it is too late. I could say more but it would get restricted lol
