Lotus School For Excellence 11001 East Alameda Avenue, Aurora, CO 80012

"This school is the worst school ever. I went to this school a couple years back, and no NOTHING has changed. The teachers are all still very mean. Plus, most of the "good" replies are from the horrible teachers here, just to make this school look good. There is some good teachers. But most of them are bad. This school is soo un-organized that they have to have EXTRA volunteers (that don't get paid). I had 3 other siblings that went here, and Mr. Dayleon (the one that blows the whistle to act like he's cool) told both of my brothers to shut up 3 times. Plus, the teachers cuss at this school. If you want your kid(s) to have bad examples all the time and fail at school because the teachers are too busy talking about their "horrible lives". Well then this is the school for your child. Just because it's a charter school, doesn't mean it's good."

"This is the best school in Colorado. Almost all of the teachers are amazing, qualified and will go out of their way to help out a student. There are class difficulties for all students; Advanced Placement, Honors and normal classes. If a student wants to have a high level of success, Lotus provides the right tools for them to do so.! The tools are there and if the student uses them then Lotus is a great school.For the most part, it consists of regular people of all races that interact with each other. Our teachers and principals and deans and everyone are awesome!! Lotus is the best school."

"I have been a this school for about 3 years now and to me it seems like the people at this school are really professional when it comes to the work and care deeply about everyone.Lotus also has a robotics club which I am proudly part of and we have been very successful this year. I recommend you send your child here because the learning program teaches the student a lot and offers tons of extra opportunities to learn about a wide range of activities.I hope Lotus gets better publicity from this lengthy comment.THANK YOU LOTUS SCHOOL FOR EXCELLENCE!"

"I love this school! If you're a parent that encourages and values achievement, and has an expectation that they will attend college then this is a great fit for you. If you have a child who has behavioral problems, he/she may struggle here. Academics are the focus. The teachers are kind and caring, and want to see each child succeed. One of the greatest things is the ability grouping. if academically they are at that level, and each grade level is broken up into at least 3 ability groups. The intervention when students aren't at grade level is impressive; 100% of last year's graduating class (apx 60students) was accepted to college. I agree it's not the perfect school for everyone, but it has been perfect for us, and all students who have thrived here."

"I love it so far! The staff is helpful and friendly. There are different secretaries for the different schools: elementary, middle and high school. I think just from observing that the elementary school office may not be as together as middle and high school. I do like that there is a dress code so, that kids may focus more on school work than fashion."
