5519 McAffee Street, Timnath, CO 80547

My kids started this school after we moved from a school that had a 10/10 rating on Great Schools. I was quite nervous to place them into Timnath, since it has a much lower rating -- but it turned out to be the best decision we could have made for our kids. The Principal, Jill Barella, is amazing and sets the stage for a warm community that actually knows all of the kids’ names. The community that Jill creates sets the tone to encourage a positive learning environment for the kids, and one that does not foster bullying or other behaviors. I've watched the school rally together during hard times and celebrate wins. The specials teachers are also amazing and go above and beyond for the kids, even doing after school activities for low or no cost. I'm still in awe. My 4th grader has made so much progress in math this year, it’s unbelievable. And my very anxious /nervous kindergartner loves her teacher and the school so much, she is disappointed when she is sick and can't attend. Thank you so much to Timnath Elementary, we are so glad to be Cubs!
