The McClelland School

The McClelland School is a phenomenal place. My 1st grader is doing 3rd grade projects, and giving oral reports in front of students and parents! You won't find that anywhere else. My daughter is in preschool, and it is the only preschool in the area where they get Spanish, Music, Art and PE as a part of their core curriculum. We love it here, and wouldn't have our children anywhere else.

We have had our daughter at McClelland for 2 years now and we really enjoy it. Greatest teachers ,Staff ,students and parents. Their curriculum and environment is something you won't find anywhere else and we are happy to be apart of it . Also every student wants to be here and they hate to miss a day. My daughter cries when sick and we make her miss a day.

Our son has been in the pre-school for two years and loves it. It is a very interactive school with lots of opportunities for parental involvement.

We've been at McClelland more years than I care to count. We've seen many changes and moves forward. We love the school, teachers, curriculum, environment, and staff. It's a community that I cannot put into words, you'll have to experience it for yourself, and I hope you will.

We have been at McClelland for 9 years now, and we are very happy. The teachers are phenomenal and care so much about our kids. We are lucky enough to have music, art, gym and Spanish when so many other schools are losing these very important classes. Not only do our children receive a wonderful education at McClelland, we also know that they are in a safe and nurturing environment.

In short, two reasons this school is great. #1 Academics are challenging and prep students for success in high school. #2 Students are taught to work cooperatively with their peers and adults. In more detail: When students are testing 2 to 4 grade levels higher than their grade, it is fantastic. And the students we send to high school are on honor roll or high honor roll. My daughter, who just graduated 8th grade, started high school in a sophomore math class, honors English, and honors history. My other daughter, a 7th grader, is excelling in math, English and science. To top it all off, the students all get along. There is no bullying and children will work on compromise to resolve disagreement rather than arguing. During these time, teachers generally only have to monitor the situation rather than get involved. No doubt the best all around school in Pueblo.

McClelland is a special place that welcomes diversity and whose staff and faculty work to earn the respect of the community. It's a warm, safe and nurturing environment for students who are given the freedom to 'think and do' in order to learn. Maybe most important, McClelland produces kids who are thoughtful and nice!
