The kids are very mean a lot of fights happen and the special education isn’t very good.

Golden High has a lot of good teachers here, from what I have experienced so far, they're all respectful and nice to all the kids a like, no matter what. They don't exclude anyone and are supportive of everyone, checking in with some that need it more than others. They really did a good job at making the school feel secure and safe for everyone there, though that's one of the downsides. Despite all the good sides about this school their are an awful amount of bullies and fights/hardships that happen here every year. When we reported someone doing something bad to us and/or others the counsellors did nothing about it, we asked about it a week later and then they'll say they'd do something about it and never did. The teacher's and some of the counselors are not good at taking care of students that are actually causing harm to the others and are instead focusing on the little things like how people are giving others piggyback rides in the cafeteria calling it unsafe for them. With that, some of the staff are... Odd. One of the security guards that are supposed to make us feel safe aren't really doing a good job at that, following students around and even checking their files and going into certain details that they shouldn't. I really do think this school needs to do a better job at handling their staff and the bullying problem. It isn't my number one suggestion for a school but it's not all that bad. I'd give it about a 7/10.

Excellent school! Very dedicated and caring teachers . The school provide free seminars on parenting. Individual approach to each child. Highly recommend!

This is our 2nd year with a student at WRHS and I would say our son is thriving. He has found his groove: academically, socially and emotionally. He's happy and so are we. He has the supports he needs at school (he as a 504 plan and their team has been amazing in getting him to be part of this process to make adjustments as needed). The community feels like we live a small town, even though we are in metro Denver, and we know and feel comfortable with many of the kids and their families since we've known a lot of them since elementary school. He is not a sports super star, yet he was able to participate in soccer and wrestling as a freshman and now he has decided to stick with the mountain bike team (yes, we have a mountain bike team!) and has really found his people. We're so happy we decided to send our son to WRHS and plan to send our younger son here as well.
