When I was hired here, I uprooted my children from Turman Elementary to attend The Vanguard Elementary School out of convenience. When I did the application for my youngest daughter, I did not understand that speech therapy was considered an IEP. I even googled it to be sure and it didn't come up under IEP, thus I chose the \No\ radio button under the question about IEP. However, when I did the final paperwork for their enrollment, I asked about speech therapy upfront and Mrs. Blanchard, in short, told me that she needed more information. Three days into my children's attendance there, I receive notification that my youngest can't stay, because she has an IEP and their caseload is full. Though, I pointed out that her paperwork actually stated that she didn't need it, they insisted that she could no longer attend that school, because the federal law states that she can't be in school with an IEP and not get services. I was shocked, because she was already demoted to kindergarten upon entering the school, around other kids who spoke like her and I heard nothing, but great reports from her teacher. Long story short, I had to quit my job to find a school for my girls and my girls now attend Giberson Elementary, where my youngest has yet to take speech therapy though Vanguard insisted that she had to. After that incident, I did research and found that this school has a reputation of discriminating against IEP students. I spoke with the district superintendent and he told me that, if it was any other school in the district he could help me, but because it was this school, his hands are tied, because they are an independent school. So, in short, this school is great for kids who do not have an IEP.

I have gone to this school since kindergarten. It was amazing up till 6th grade when teachers become rabbi and front desk people won't let your sick child go home. I recommend going to this school until 5 th grade. The Super Attendant lies to the kids saying \ you make this school #1 in Colorado\ we were number one...back in 2013 since then this school has plummeted down the ranks.
