More students means more teachers, more resources, and more programming for your child. As you know we have had some decreases in staff in past years. This is directly related to the declining number of students. One of the driving forces is the increased cost of living in North Boulder. However, another reason may be that parents are choosing private schools or neighboring districts without looking closely at Crest View. We are actively engaged in winning these students back to Crest View. You can help! If you know of a neighbor or friend with children ready for Kindergarten, 1st or 2nd grade, we are hosting 4 opportunities for school tours. Prospective parents can take a tour and learn more about our community. Please send them this link so they can register for one of our upcoming tours.
