I’ve been part of the Centennial community for many years, with all six of my kids attending at different times and with very different needs. Between IEPs, 504 plans, and advanced learning, we’ve experienced a wide range of what the school offers.Throughout that time, I’ve found the staff to be attentive, approachable, and truly invested in their students as individuals. There’s a clear focus on providing structure while also supporting growth, and that combination has made a positive difference for my kids.From an academic standpoint, my children have been appropriately challenged while still receiving the support they needed. Communication from the school has been steady and reliable.Centennial is a Title I school with a diverse student population, and that diversity adds to the strength of the community. It’s a place where many families feel connected and included.Most importantly, my kids have felt seen, supported, and cared for during their time here.

Parents: Do NOT assume every meeting with this school administration is being handled fairly or professionally just because it happens behind closed doors. Many students leave those offices feeling intimidated, misrepresented, emotionally distressed, or afraid to speak up. Families often do not realize how important documentation becomes until it is too late. Here’s what every parent and student should know: • Keep a paper trail (Emails, Phone Calls, Copies of Documents) • Save emails and screenshots • Write down dates, times, witnesses, and exact statements • Follow up after meetings with an email summary • Ask for policies or disciplinary decisions in writing • Do not rely solely on verbal conversations Too many important conversations happen privately where there is no independent record of what was actually said. That is why documentation matters. The reality is that people become comfortable saying things behind closed doors that they would never put into writing or say publicly. Comments or tones that can be rude, dismissive, intimidating, manipulative, or inappropriate because there is an assumption that nothing will be documented and nobody will be held accountable afterward. Emotional reactions from students or parents may later be used against them as justification or defense. That is why it is so important to remain calm, composed, and focused on documentation and written follow-ups. Accountability in writing creates a record that cannot easily be denied or changed later. It is also important to document conversations even when they seem friendly or respectful. Many families assume there is no need to follow up if someone sounds nice or professional, but maintaining a consistent paper trail is extremely important regardless of tone. Parents and students should also understand how quickly narratives can form once a student is labeled as “difficult,” “emotional,” or “problematic.” Future situations may begin to be interpreted through that lens regardless of context. A clear written history can help protect students and families from misunderstandings or one-sided versions of events. Colorado is a one-party consent state. Individuals may legally record conversations they are part of. Families should educate themselves on their rights, district procedures, state and federal laws.
