The school has a good engineering program, IB and AP classes, and most of the teachers are pretty good, however, the administrators at this school are awful. If you have a 504, IEP, or any medical condition, the admin team will fight you on everything. They do not care about your wellbeing in the sl
Posted by a student on 10/17/2025Centaurus is a diverse high school, smaller than the other high schools in Boulder County. They offer classes from academic support to advanced curricula. They offer an engineering focus if desired. My child came from a small, private school and was concerned about making friends. He has made friend

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school preaches NO HATE but will not support your child when bullied by mean girls and their mothers. The staff only supports families who act like they are more privileged than you. Such a cold place and my daughter is now in therapy. Absolutely zero culture and they only cater to one niche. Truly disgusting place to send your kids.Parent Review1y ago - Ryan Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe moved from Los Angeles back to Colorado after 16 years and we could not be happier with Fireside. Our son needed help with reading, writing and speech therapy. The support he has been given is amazing. Most teachers have 1-2 Masters degrees and love what they do. Fireside is highly recommended.Parent Review1y ago - Pioneer Bilingual Elementary School
