I love the support that this school gives. I think that they cover every aspect that you can think of, from emotional support to academics. It has been a pleasure sending my son to school every day.

I've had kids attending Eagleview for years, but I do think it's gone down recently. The choir program is still outstanding, but the academics have declined. I'm guessing Eagleview is currently doing a decent job at working with kids who are struggling. But Eagleview is not helping or challenging advanced kids. They've recently removed Advanced Language Arts classes and they've lost their outstanding advanced math teacher (why?). Their priorities seem to have shifted. If I had to do it again, I would have found a different middle school for my child. In the scheme of things, it's still a decent school and I'm not refraining from recommending it, but I would look carefully at the education provided.

It is shocking how quickly the atmosphere has changed in this school. It used to be a positive, welcoming place with strong academics, best teachers, great elective choices, athletics, clubs, events, etc. Now, starting with the new "secure" entry, parents are treated like criminals. It is hard to even get into the school. After waiting outside for a full minute, you are reluctantly buzzed in and questioned by the unhappy front office staff who keep shutting the glass window on you. If you ask to be let into the school through the second locked door, you are told not to go anywhere. It does not help to bring up that the school has the open door policy, or maybe the new principal changed that too. Principal Lester talks down to parents, interrupts, gets immediately defensive if you bring up any questions or concerns. He does not listen. My child did not have any reasons to deal with him. But I would not feel comfortable with him speaking to my child. Tried addressing some concerns with the district. They listen, then ignore you completely. We are just waiting to move on to high school.

This school is not what it should be, could be, or what it used to be. When adults are arrogant and rude to parents, imagine how your child is being treated. I simply wish that valid discussion points were not treated like a debate and not seen as invalid before the point is made. The environment is intimidating from leadership, I sincerely hope that changes. Leadership should work with parents, this is not done successfully. Students should be heard, even if not agreed with. Iron fist rule doesn't gain respect. Instead it initiates fear in some, and rebellion in others.

10. I went here back in the day. And the difference in progressive way of teaching is mind blowing. They teach kids to deal with technology. As well the parents to be get involved. I like how the six graders are not exposed to the 7/8th graders by how the buildings are situated. They aren’t quite ready to be one of the big kids in the begginning of 6th. There is so much emotional and physical growth in this year. Whatever the teachers and staff do here is remarkable. What a great school!

We love AAA. The arts integration is phenomenal. The field trips and exploratories were far above and beyond other schools we looked at. We love the soft transition the pods offer 6th graders.

I have had two children attend this school and I have had to remove them both for various reasons by 7th grade. I do not recommend this school. This school has not met any of our standards by any means.

Terrible. I pulled my students as have several of my neighbors. D20 offers EXCELLENT alternatives and principals at others schools are understanding and happy to accept students even after the 1st quarter.

We had a terrible experience at this school. During 6th and 7th grade my daughter was bullied on multiple occasions. It was the same group of girls every time and despite our attempts nothing was ever done. By day 2 of 8th grade the bullying was in full effect. My husband and I went to the counselor, 8th grade principal, and school principal asking for our child to be switched to the other pod so she would no longer be in class with these girls. A simple fix to which we were told no. We even went to the superintendents office and they involved. We decided to pull her out and move her to a different school because no one seemed to care about our child and the effects 2+ years off bullying has had on her. The principal couldn’t careless that we were pulling her out. My daughter was miserable at this school, she experienced first hand the politics of the staff, and felt as though no one cared about her and what she was going through. I would never recommend this school to anyone.

This school has different learning environments, such as the Art's program. AAA provides students with fun filled activities that involve the 5 different arts. They could learn a math problem by singing a song about it. Eagleview also has the best staff. I am very pleased about how all staff works together and makes sure that every student understands what topic they are learning about. Also the staff is setting the students up for success. There are many clubs that can fit your student.

This school is just perfect! Not only do teachers teach at a great pace for the students but there is a variety of classes to help student feel comfortable. They make sure everyone is behaving respectively, understanding the curriculums, and feeling welcome. All the extracurricular classes are amazing! They have such a large selection to choose from there is no way a student wouldn't like this school!

A great school! Really fun! Make sure you are in the AAA team or else your experience may differ. (Caution: not all schools are for everyone and this is no exception, student discretion is advised)

This school is awesome! They have great teachers who are helpful and want you to learn! The school itself is nice and large and has a wonderful variety of classes. They have a lot of programs for different kids, they have great lunches, and this school is just plain great.

This school is awful! We moved here last year due to the fire in Mt. Shadows and it has been an absolutely awful experience. They do not understand kids that may struggle, are not be "cool" or who don't work entirely independent. The homework and grades are rarely updated on IC, every teacher uses a different website format if they even use one and it is rarely updated. When we brought up an issue, it was blown off and then we felt as though our child was targeted to prove a point to us as parents. The students are not welcoming to new kids, and the teachers and staff are young and have many "cliques" themselves. I find Eagleview to be a unwelcoming place without any high academic standards and if you don't get in with the right crowd immediately, good luck!

District 20 is OK for kids that dont need help, dont have an IEP or 504. If you have a special needs kido in District 20 besure you read all the federal education laws, IDEA and read Wrighslaw web site, have Peak Parent center on you speed dial options. Read the Colorado Revised statues on education.
