Districts are not ranked or rated as to which is best. The School Attendance Law distinguishes between non-public schools and home study. Home study is permitted in Colorado under this law. Non-public schools are required to provide a basic academic education, but are protected from untoward interference by any board of education, state or local. We know when it comes to education, one size does not fit all.
Children learn in different ways and have different learning strengths and interests.
Students are more excited about learning and learn more when they are in educational programs that suit their learning styles and special strengths, needs, and interests. Legislation enacted in 1994 creates open enrollment throughout Colorado. This means you may enroll your children in any public school in the state, assuming there is space available, without paying extra money. Colorado has 18 charter schools and more are under development. Charter schools are public schools created by groups of parents, teachers, or community members to reflect different educational approaches or philosophies.
