I have absolutely loved our experience at Thornton! The administration, teachers, and staff are all so dedicated and I really feel like they care about my child. There are so many programs offered and my child has gained so much over her time at this school.

The teachers here are the best my children have ever experienced. They show a lot of care and love for them. The community is also a great place to raise my family.

My son has been in Thorton since kinder, I enjoyed both teachers kinder an first! When we hit second grade from week one my son an his teacher had problems an I as the mom stepped in for many meetings to help my son. Only to see as time went on that the communication with his teach was extremely poor. I too was having problems with her she was not as polite or organized as she should be when dealing with test homework or just everyday in an out paperwork between student parent an school. If I could upload pictures I have of notes an many rude dojo comments from her. I took my son out of that school today and couldn't be more happy about it! I got no results after meeting with vice principal either after a few times I decided this was a school me my family didn't think was good for my son or inpaticular the teacher an there was no change she just kept her ugly attitude and stop communicating period with us.

This school literally tore my family apart. I have never been exposed to such detached uncaring disrespectful unprofessionalism. I share my experience after have been a teacher for underprivileged children and a teacher for first year English in college myself. My family has been devastated by seemingly endless thoughtless choices made by the school with no thought of the consequences that followed. The affliction that has been splashed upon us still reverberates daily like the loud clanging noise of a brass church bell being rung. I can't begin to describe the hoops I have had to jump through. How we were not even left with a shred of dignity. How inside out upside down our lives have had to become. How incredibly easy it has been for Thornton Elementary to remain detached, disrespectful, uncaring, and unapologetic. There are no more words to convey the damage this school has done to my family.
