Denver Green School

Ellis was an amazing experience for our child who had incredible teachers, consistent and outstanding support, and life changing special education interventions. We never expected such skill, care, and advocacy from public education.

Send your kids here if you hate them this school will only cares about the teachers, I heard about a kid attempting in the school bathroom the kids avoid school counselors because all the school counselors do is tell the parents like it was the parents hating the kids and, one time I ate the chicken nuggets and it was uncooked, And coming from someone who was here them don't take action for when the spanish speaking classes start fights and blame the kids English-speaking kids for it and some how provoking it, I remember sitting at lunch and some boys from the Spanish speaking class started a fight with the other class and it was the English-speaking class that stop the fight before the teachers did.

I can honestly say that Montessori School of Denver has been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our kids. From day one, every teacher and staff member made our family feel welcome and supported. Our kids felt like they belonged right away, and that sense of comfort and confidence has only grown.What stands out most to me is how MSD develops the whole child. The academics are strong and our kids stay challenged, but the real difference is the focus on social and emotional growth, independence, and learning how to think, not just memorize. I see those skills show up at home every day.Our kids have also faced real challenges along the way, and the school’s response has been exceptional. Instead of handing us referrals and sending us on our way, the team took the time to explain what was going on, what support would look like, and how we could work together. They checked in often and made us feel like partners in helping our kids develop.I also appreciate the flexibility in the academic program. When our child was ready to move ahead, the school found ways to challenge them while keeping them in their classroom community where they thrive socially.As a parent, you want your kids to be seen, supported, and pushed in the right ways. MSD does all of that. We’re glad to be part of this school.

After four years at Graland Country Day School, with a child in 3rd grade and another in Pre-k, we can say without hesitation that it has been one of the best decisions we've made for our family. Graland has created something truly special - an environment where warmth, love, and intellectual growth coexist seamlessly. The teachers, staff, and administrators consistently demonstrate a level of thoughtfulness and intentionality that sets this school apart. Every interaction reflects a deep commitment to the whole child, and we have been consistently impressed by the care and excellence each educator brings to the classroom. The community itself is equally remarkable. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with genuine kindness and inclusivity. Four years in, that sense of belonging has only deepened. We feel fortunate to be surrounded by families and educators who share a commitment to raising curious, compassionate, and capable children. We have full confidence that our children are not only receiving a world-class education, but are also learning the values and life skills that will stay with them far beyond their years at Graland. We are deeply grateful to be part of this community and recommend it enthusiastically to any family seeking an exceptional school experience.
