I love the school!!! The Principal, teachers, staff and kids are just wonderful! We have been attending this school 3 1/2 years. My youngest is now in Pre-K. Everyone is so helpful and happy. Now that I have the time I am able to volunteer more. All the teachers are in need of extra help and I think that the kids enjoy seeing the volunteers come in. Its been great to see this school grow and I have been happy with how my child is being taught. Any concerns are addressed in a timely manner. It is a great school who understands how to deal with children of military families who have to deal with frequent deployments.
I am an academic tutor of an Eagleside student who spent years in a top Academy District 20 school without even being taught the steps in the Scientific method! Now the kid is 6th-grader at Eagleside and got a first prize in the science fair. Every project diligently followed the scientific method, and the grand prize in her age group was actually quite impressive. I say this as one who has been a science fair judge for years. Anyway, if you want to see an American public school that is charting new territory, Eagleside is it!
This is my youngest childs 3rd school in 5years and she loves it, my middle child went for her 5th grade year and she also loved the school and the teachers. It is a great military/civilian community.
This year was my sons first year and Im glad I decided on this school. He is advanced in reading, math, spelling and writing. The teachers are awesome and the staff is wonderful. The school has an amazing art class and teacher. My son was in first grade this year and he begin the school year reading at a first grade level and now he is reading at a third grade level. I also work with him at home and I believe the duo combination paid off. Thanks Eagleside!
This school is the best in Fountain, Colorado. The PTO is focused on new activities to raise money for the school. For example they are having their first carnival at the end of this school year. There is a lot of military families here so they have special programs for the children that are adjusting to their parents going on deployments. They have a wonderful before and after school program with Boys and Girls Club, which takes place in the cafeteria. The teachers are so kind and loving to the children. They have so much wisdom in their teaching and judging by my daughter straight A's it's easy to see that their dedication makes the difference. My daughter has gone to Eagleside for 3 years and has learned so much. The extra-curricular activities are exciting. Computers, music, art, they have so much to offer your child. Great choice for your family!
There is no better school to send your child to than Eagleside. The kider program is amazing and the teachers encourage each child to excel to their full potential. Wonderful staff.
This school is wonderful. It brought my child to become a A/B honor roll student. My thanks go out to each and everyone, including the office staff who are always polite and kind.
This is a wonderful school. There is good structure for the students. My child has enjoyed the programs that they have here & looks forward to the special ~ PE, Music, Technology (computers). The teaching staff is awesome across the board as well as the office & admin. staff. It is nice to have your child in a school where the Principal & the teachers know each child & invest. It is a comfort to see the children come back in the fall & the Principal greet them & call them out by their names. All of them! not just the ones that they see in their office. The homework seems to be a good balance. Some but, not to much. All of my childs teachers have been amazing at this school!
I had two of my children attend this school. They loved it! Even on Weekends the kids would ask to go to school. My son loved Miss Suzanne's Pre-K class! The kindergarten and 1st grade programs were also quite exceptional. This school does their best to let the students bloom to their full potential. Impressive!!!
My son participated in the Pre-K class with Miss Suzanne, and staff. I absolutely enjoyed this year! My son also loves this class. They work so close to the students. I have zero complaints!
