As a parent of two Kyffin kids I cannot say enough good things about this school. I had a very shy little girl who lacked confidence, she has been in this school for 2 years now and I have seen leaps and bounds in her confidence level! I think alot of credit goes to the staff at this school for her improvement! Thank goodness for the staff here and being able to choose your school. Thank you, thank you to all Kyffin staff!
This school is going down hill. Rating used to be a 10, next year probably an 8. Prior Principal set the school up for a downhill slide. Placed utmost importance on the GT program and completely filled the school to overcapacity with out of area students. Traffic problem is huge, sense of entitlement without volunteering or supporting the school is much elevated. The school is crowded although the addition of 'temps' have helped. The amount of teacher turnover last year was more than we have seen many many years. There is a very dedicated group of core parents that really support the school with time and dollars, but they are evaporating as the students from the neighborhood move on.
Many opportunities for parent involvement. Rich in extracurricular activities. Excellent educational opportunities.
The school itself is great. The parents and staff are wonderful. I do have issues with the SAE program (before & after). It is extremely expensive. I was paying half in the Cherry Creek School District. Not only the cost but they seem to be closed when the school is. Im not off 2 weeks at Christmas. Im not off for MLK day. Im not off for Presidents Day. Its a huge burden to find care for my kids on days when I feel I pay these folks enough to be open. They may have a lot more children attending if they would make some changes. Cost being the first !!
