I truly can't say enough good things about Cherry Creek I've had experience with other districts and there is no comparison ! They are wonderful, compassionate and patient with my children.As a parent I have had the unfortunate experiences with Adams and Douglas BOTH of which made me feel judged and treated me poorly. Did I mention the office ladies at Antelope Ridge (especially Mary)Treat you like humans and are truly the best!I feel blessed to be a part and have my children in the district.

If you have a special needs kid this School terrible Schools should follow the kids IEp to provide a service they will tell you they are but that's not True if the kids are likes to play Lego they will let them play Lego Think of it like a daycare my son never challenged to do his best Most of his time should be in general education but that's never followed they pulled him out of the class whenever convenient for them when I asked why never gates a good reason it's convenient for them to put the kids in one room and let them do whatever they want instead of educating them I don't think their rating include their special indication service .

This school is amazing. We have been attending for the past 4 years (2 kids so far) and have nothing but positive things to say. The teachers go above and beyond what is expected in order to make sure your children are thriving in every way possible. The anti-bully philosophy makes the kids feel safe and the new mindful life practices are awesome. I really feel like they care about every aspect of my children's education and emotional health and well-being. Looking forward to many more years here.

I've had two children through this school. The teachers and programs have changed based on the principal and available funding (the 4-stars). However, the interest in teaching and compassion for the kids is of highest quality.

My son was struggling to adjust to public school when we moved because he has been in a private school all his life, but his teacher made sure that he transitioned well. At first he was getting 3's and 4's, but towards the end of the year, his teacher helped him improve his performance and he was back to getting 1's and 2's again. This year, he is doing just as well as he did at his private school. The only complaint I have about this school is the calendar. This school is a track school, so the kids go to school all year. That makes it hard to plan summer vacations, etc, but the school is working to change the school to a traditional school year. Otherwise, I recommend this school to parents! The teachers are very nice!
