Park Lane is a great school, my son is in affective needs class and he made such a great improvement in his behavior and academic progress, the help he is getting is great and the staff personnel is so kind.About extra curricular activities, they have a lot of programs, like the Kiwanis for read, the win win, the bunk with the beasts and a lot of events where the parents can participate too !

I feel the quality of academics is average. As far as extracurricular activities - well lets just say it bluntlfully honest there are none offered at this school. Sad but true. Parent involvement is a little above average.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Colorado used the Transitional Colorado Assessment Program (TCAP) to test students' skills in reading, writing and mathematics in grades 3 through 10, and in science in grades 5, 8 and 10. The TSAP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Colorado. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test. The TCAP replaced the CSAP as Colorado's state assessment program effective for the 2011-2012 school year.
