I’m in my final year as a Crest View parent, and my (very different) children have attended the school since 2018. We initially chose Crest View because it’s our neighborhood school and raised no obvious red flags. I’m a very protective mother, and had I known some of the challenges my children woul
Posted by a parent on 1/29/2026On 1/26/26, the principal wrote to all 5th grade parents: "Over the course of this school year, we have addressed several individual incidents. When viewed together, these incidents point to a broader pattern of harmful language and behavior within this cohort." My question is how did leadership all

Posted by a parent on 11/13/2025Crest View's quality has declined significantly under the current leadership.

He’s part of the bilingual program and is thriving in both reading and writing in both languages. He has made many friends, and we truly enjoy being part of the school community. The teachers have been wonderful—warm, supportive, and dedicated.Parent Review6mo ago - Shining Mountain Waldorf School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe feel incredibly grateful to have found Shining Mountain Waldorf School for our son’s early education. We moved to Boulder from Chile in July 2024, and as a Spanish-speaking child adjusting to a new culture, language, and environment, the transition could have been overwhelming. But the Bluebell classroom provided exactly the kind of nurturing, calm, and thoughtful space he needed.His teacher was patient, attentive, and truly compassionate—helping him not only with the language transition but also emotionally adapting to a completely new world. She made sure he felt safe, seen, and included every step of the way. Over the year, we saw him grow more confident, curious, and joyful in his learning. His progress in English has been remarkable, but what matters even more to us is how much he enjoys going to school and how cared for he feels there.The Waldorf approach has been a beautiful fit for our family, and we’re so happy to be part of this community. We’re excited to continue this journey with Shining Mountain!Parent Review10mo ago - Jarrow Montessori School
