6/25/2018
Because the school is K-8, you get treated like a little kid when you get to middle school. Some teachers are good and some are bad. The "old building" is dim and dusty, and there isn't any AC. The "new building" is pretty nice because it is new. The worst part about the school is the administration. They have a clear bias towards the accuser, and have a mentality of guilty until proven innocent.
3/30/2016
The school is a K-8 and has a wonderful reputation. It is bursting at the seams with almost 900 people enrolled. I wish the school were bigger. Sometimes the class size gets too large as a result of the popularity. Colfax is diverse with students from over 50 countries. It is a neighborhood school where most people know each other. It has a very active PTO that raises over 50,000 annually to pay for extra enrichment programs and technology for the school. Parents are involved and support the school and in turn their children are there to learn. The school has a community feel since it is a K-8. The students continue together from K - 8th grade and it creates a very friendly atmosphere for the most part.

So far great. Kids have been there since kindergarten. Highly recommended. Colfax has the most gifted students
5/7/2016
Bad experience, but if your child is really bright, it will be a good choice .
10/8/2014
My son is there and we love this school. Teachers are always friendly and doing their best to children.
11/19/2013
I love Colfax, especially the staff. My daughter and two sons go there. As the kids get older, the teachers do not treat them like children, but as young adults, this school really made a great impact on my children!
