Douglas County deserves a 5-star rating for the amazing experience I have encountered during my years of being enrolled in their schools. I believe that they really do care about their staff and students. Living in Colorado we always get hit with some big snowstorms and they always take our safety into consideration when having to drive in rough conditions. Also as we all know the Coronavirus has hit every part of the world hard and Douglas county really did the best with handling the situation. Their goal was to have the kids in person but also as safe as possible, and although we had kids put in quarantine they never allowed things to get too bad. It is my senior year and I appreciate every person that was involved in allowing me to have a semi-normal senior year that I will never be able to forget. On top of the crazy problems they had to deal with they still managed to give me the absolute best education, there is to offer. They get 5 stars for doing their absolute best.
Douglas County District is a great district for student to attend in colorado because they have great schools and activities that will enhance the student's creativity, courage, self-esteem and confidence. They have great school such as Douglas County High School which provides the IB Diploma program for students and challenges them to do better everyday. They also have many recognition programs for students that gives them the confidence to do better everyday.
My children have always had the best experiences in DCSD from elementary school at Pioneer to middle school at Cimarron and now in High School at Legend. I have a senior and a freshman at Legend this year. My only complaint is that kids need to in school full time in this pandemic. Remote learning is difficult for their social-emotional learning!
