Green Mountain Elementary School Reviews

The school has greatly improved scores in all areas of CSAP. Class sizes are great this year (08 - 09) although that will change for all Jeffco Schools as the mill levy failed at the last election. The teachers are all doing a great job and are open communicating our children's needs and progress.

The leadership at this school is terrible. I am not impressed with many of the staff members. I spend a lot of time teaching my child at home because at this school there is very little progress. I have a background in education, and this school's lack of direction scares me. I will be enrolling my son at another school.

The e-mail communication with my daughter's 2nd grade teacher, has been a great way for me to verify information and exchange ideas to help advance my daughters academic success.

Green Mountain has been our choice school for 2 years. Our son's art talent was recognized in kindergarden by both his teacher as well as his principal. He is in first grade this year and he is absolutely thriving in all academic areas. The special ed program is great and we love the diversity and feeling of family in this school.

I also agree with the previous post regarding the math curriculum, and the lack of patience many of the teachers have.

While the staff is friendly, the class sizes are large this year 24/2nd grade, and 36/5th. There is alot of staff transition, they don't seem to keep teachers in for long-though there are a few that have been there awhile & we love them. The math curriculum is terrible, and the kids are struggling with it as the test scores indicate.
