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.

Connecting with the teachers throughout my four years was very impactful to me. Thats what really made Skyline stand out for me. The environment in which we learn determines our level of motivation and success. I met many people who always had my best interest as a priority. With their help and encouragement, I was able to graduate very satisfied and confident in the path I was taking.

Nice place to be if you're close, but if you can reasonably drive, go to Longmont. We used to have the best theatre program in the district, but that is no longer the case and the department as a whole has gone downhill. The teachers are generally nice and I felt confident in the course material.

I have overall had a good experience at Skyline High School. I have been a part of the STEM program all 4 years and it provided a lot of great opportunities academically for me to explore different STEM-related careers. One thing that I think could be improved is the student-involvement and participation in activities like sports and clubs.

good school, very understated in the St. Vrain School district but they aren’t very involved with the student they mainly care if you learned what’s on the worksheet they give.

The teachers take a personal interest in their students and desire to see their students succeed. They will work with student individually to ensure they are not falling behind. Skyline emp...

Not too shabby. Good stem program. I've had a good three years here and it doesn't even compare to my previous high school which was a dump
