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.

I have been at Frontier Charter Academy for 9 years and I have loved every year. Every year I'm always meeting new people, making new friends and learning many new things. The variety of classes offered for how small the school is is amazing.

Too much expectations put on the students, teachers don't trust us, programs are small, and the curriculum's are not engaging .

When I was in high school, most of the teachers were really good at their job. They had been at Frontier Academy for year ad years, and they actually cared about the students. The year I graduated, all of the good teachers quit. It could have been because the year before we got a new principle. I didn't see the new principle much, but I heard that he was very liberal and the students made fun of him for being somewhat of a loser. I don't know why those teachers quit, but I do know that the administration changed, and so they could have left because of that. The food was really bad, which I guess is to be expected with school food. One of the counselors I particular was absolutely wonderful. His name was Henry Byerly, and he was so helpful in all aspects, and he was also very kind.

No. Don't do it. Just run. Don't bring your kids to this school. They just plain don't do anything about bullying.

We moved to Greeley almost 6 years ago from Fort Collins. I had a really hard time transferring my son to this school district until we were accepted at Frontier.

I have 5 kids in this school. High school, middle school, and elementary. When we started 12 years ago it was truly the best school around. That is not the case anymore. There are still some really good, caring, teachers that are still there. Many have left or been pushed out by administration. Prin...
