Telluride High School is anti-Catholic; I've been called a nazi for the past four years for being Catholic.

I enjoyed my time at Telluride and I made a lot of friends and learned a lot! The teachers made ample efforts to make sure that the material was understood and that students were engaged. This was the case! I loved all my teachers and really enjoyed the material they thought and more importantly the way they thought.

Very nice school. Good facilities, great teachers and resources. But a very tight knit community that can be hard to break into.
