Our family has had a great experience so far. All of the teachers and staff are extremely personable and friendly. The small school size means everyone feels like family and each child receives personalized attention. The Superintendent is intelligent, caring, and always striving for ways to improve.

A few parents, teachers and school board members form a small clique that controls all aspects of the school. Stay Away from this school! Look at the public statistics on lack of student performance. Is this a babysitting activity or a school?

Bullying where the teachers and the principle doesn't care, food that came from the dump, and was forced to move schools and bring my child to therapy. Do not come to this school if your child develops differently than any other children.

I totally agree with the parent who talked about the necessity of music and art class. However, I am very happy that my boy is having a PE everyday. We are new to New Hope school but are there any special clubs like music band, art and sports after school? When I became 5th grade, each student had to choose one club and also in middle school and high school. Does this school have PTA?

This school needs a lot of help! The food kids eat here is terrible. The food is something you would find in a homeless shelter. There is no help if students are not caught up with material. Not all but most of the teachers do not care about the students. I am so upset that this school offers no music program when the majority of schools offer music class. It saddens me that these students are robbed of quality education. Also, why is art not allowed?! So if my child has an artistic talent, she can't practice it?! I grew up with art class, music class, library time twice per week, computer class.....and so much more. It's horrible that just because I live near Thornton, my child has to attend this school.

New Hope School does not prepare you for high school. All of us hard to work twice as hard to get caught up. The principal does just care about raising money and nothing else. Staff has no respect for the students.
