To be clear, this is a fantastic school. The teachers are incredible and my kids got an excellent education. There aren’t many extracurricular opportunities, but I think that’s typical of elementary schools in the Denver metro. I would have given 5 stars, but the cliquey childlike PTA is about as ba
Posted by a parent on 5/22/2024Shaffer is an excellent school with skilled and dedicated teachers and caring administrative staff. My youngest is in Kindergarten and oldest in 3rd grade. Both have had amazing years with lots of teacher support and big learning opportunities. We have had an excellent experience here and would sure
Posted by a parent on 5/9/2024I've been a parent at Shaffer Elementary since 2017, and have had the best experience every SINGLE year, without fail. My oldest started with Shaffer in Pre-K, and is about to "graduate" and we have two additional kiddos that started in later years. I can truly say our children have received the bes
Posted by a parent on 5/6/2024Great school overall. As is likely in any school, there are a few bad apple teachers that you have to be cautious of. As other has mentioned, PTA is definitely cliquey so it is harder as a parent to fit in when you’re not part of the “in crowd.”
Posted by a parent on 2/8/2024We have been very happy with Shaffer! We moved to the area from CCSD, and are so grateful we did! The teachers have been exceptional, Mr. Brasher is one-of-a-kind and passionate about his work. The only negative I can think of is the PTA. It’s cliquey and nearly impossible to get information out of.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy son is getting bullied at this school. He is 7 years old and kids are pushing and pulling him around. This is unacceptable, especially since I’ve talked with the teachers AND principal. I would not recommend this school.Parent Review2mo ago - Collegiate Academy of Colorado

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe enrolled our stepdaughter at Collegiate Academy of Colorado for her final two years of high school after trying a few other schools in the area, and it has been by far the best fit for her needs. The small class sizes, strong communication, and the level of support from teachers, staff, and administration truly stand out. They also provide thoughtful mental health support and accommodations when needed. It’s been a wonderful environment for her, and we’re very grateful we found this school.Parent Review2w ago - Stony Creek Elementary School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageStony Creek takes pride in teaching curriculum to their students, while also helping them to be kind, respectful, and responsible humans. They have been wonderful in preparing our kids for Kindergarten. They are willing to step forward and give extra attention where it is needed, whether that's through special education or with additionally challenging children who are excelling in the classroom.Parent Review5mo ago - Coronado Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter currently has Mrs. Laura and every time I am in classroom, I am blown away by the way she handles her classroom. The students respect for her and each other is evident, I don't think this is the vibe outside of MPA. I love the staff, front office and the Library and everyone! My daughter has told me that she wants her kids to go to Montessori and to attend in High School. It comes up at least once every few weeks. It's amazing and I am thankful for this community.Parent Review4mo ago
