Russell Elementary School in Arvada, Colorado

“Russell Elementary has been a Blessing. My daughter has attended Russell since kindergarten and is now in 4th. Being a parent that like to be involved and attend field trips, I'd have to say all her teachers have been pleasant to work with. They have been very professional, patient and have brought different learning experiences to the table. My daughter has learned a lot from all of her teachers. We are saddened that the district has chosen to close this school. I am in the process of reviewing other schools to send her to. Big decision.”

“Russell is a Wonderful school. The atmosphere is delightful. The teachers are there because it is thier calling, thier pleasure to give thier knowledge to the alert minds. They have started teaching the kids to breath when upset and to use deep breathing as a balancing point necessary in life. All of my children will atttend this school no questions asked!”

“This is the first Elementary School that my daughter has done well at. The teachers seem to have smaller class sizes and that allows them more time with our children. I can only base that on one year at Russell so far.”

“My daughter has attended Russell for three years and every teacher has been fantastic. The student population tends to be more transient than is typical, which messes with CSAP scores and other things that are factored into the rating. The staff is extremely well-educated.”
