This review and its outcome is subject to change. Its winter in NW Colorado. Yet this school is requiring our young children to enter there class rooms from the side doors and not the main entrance. This policy has left as many as 6 children that I personally know about standing outside in subzero temperature for several minutes ( 10 minutes in one case) because the children could not knock loud enough to be heard over the kids already inside.
This policy is unhealthy, unsafe, and just plain stupid. It has also led to some children getting jumped by older children as they walk around to the back of the building UNSUPERVISED.
Change this policy! If not my next review will be with the Craig Daily Press.
