My experience with this school has been deeply disappointing, especially when it comes to safety and how concerns are handled. Issues that should be taken seriously are often minimized or brushed aside. Instead of addressing problems directly, staff tend to downplay situations and hope they disappear on their own.There is also a noticeable pattern of inconsistent treatment from teachers and staff, which at times feels discriminatory. Students and families deserve to be heard and treated fairly, but that has not been my experience.Unfortunately, both the principal and vice principal seem more focused on collecting a paycheck than actively supporting students or resolving concerns. They rarely listen fully, they dismiss valid issues, and they give the impression that they simply want you to stop asking questions.A school should be a safe, supportive environment, and leadership should set that tone. Right now, this school is falling short in those areas.

Mary Ann Binford Elementary has been an amazing school for my family over the years. I’ve had kids in grades K-5 here, and I’ve seen firsthand how much this school has grown and improved. My youngest is currently in kindergarten, and I’m so impressed by how much he has already learned!I’ve had the opportunity to work with several administrators over the years, but Principal Nieto is by far my favorite. She has brought incredible energy and leadership to the school, making so many positive changes. The addition of the new makerspace is such an exciting upgrade, and I’ve noticed a clear improvement in academics and test scores under her leadership.What truly sets the school apart now is its welcoming culture and sense of community. Principal Nieto and the staff have created an environment where families feel valued and included. I can’t recommend Mary Ann Binford Elementary enough for families looking for a school that truly prioritizes their students’ success and well-being!

Had a very bad experience with the nurse's, our daughter is on a feeding tube and the school called cyfd and stated that we are not feeding our child, nurse also stated that we need to schedule our doctor's appointments when school is out? Doctor in Colorado was very upset and said we will take her to her appointments whether school is in session or not. Lost almost $800 from having to take time off to meet with both schools (other daughter went to school next door) also interviewed by CYFD. If you have a kid with disabilities please stay clear of this school. Doctor said we are doing everything perfectly and her weight was excellent. Sad situation
