GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

At STRIVE Prep Federal our students have a Bill of Rights that centers each of them in the learning environment every day: 1) You have the right to be respected and feel safe 2) You have the right to be heard and supported by caring adults 3) You have the right to learn. We we ensure all students demonstrate the Math and Reading growth required to attend college. We ensure all students work towards rigorous achievement targets that position them for success on the standardized tests that matter most. Each student is assigned an advisor who serves as the student's advocate and primary point of contact for families when they have questions. We also have a rich history of competitive athletic teams that regularly compete for league championships. Our staff actively works towards being the objectively best middle school in Denver every day.

Students on IEP’s are not receiving their proper accommodations because there is no SPED team. I have been working in the Colorado school system for 21 years and have never ever encountered this before.
