n Colorado we have options when it comes to choosing a school for our children. If you’ve considered enrolling your child in a school outside of your neighborhood boundaries, now is the time to apply for 2015-2016 and, in some districts, to start considering options for the following year. Northern Colorado’s four districts offer a wide variety of schools, with a multitude of specialties, so that your child can learn in the environment that suits him best. Whether you’d like to find a STEM school with a focus in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics; an International Baccalaureate school with a worldwide curriculum; or an alternative curriculum or online education that is right for your child, our local districts offer it all. Read on for a list of local schools and their specialties, along with deadlines to apply each year. Contact information can be found under each school listing, so be sure to call with questions or to schedule a tour before the open enrollment date passes!

School programs defined
Many educational choices await students in northern Colorado, but deciphering them is sometimes a challenge. Definitions to common terms are below. Core Knowledge: Stresses cumulative learning year to year through a specific outline of curriculum for each grade level. The goal is to prevent repetition and holes in learning from one grade level to the next. Learn more at http:// coreknowledge.org/about-the-curriculum. International Baccalaureate (IB): IB World Schools teach curriculum that is recognized worldwide, and promote compassion and curiosity with the goal of creating a better world. See www.ibo.org/index.cfm for more information. Non-traditional/Experience Based: These schools offer smaller class sizes and handson learning. Students complete portfolios of work rather than completing assignments for grades. Magnet/Lab School: These schools offer traditional curriculum while allowing students interested in the school’s special focus to pursue it to a greater depth. Many magnet schools integrate their magnet focus into all subjects.
| YOUTH PROGRAM & ACTIVITY GUIDE
Advanced Placement/College Credit: These are intense courses designed to prepare students for higher education, boost college applications, and in some cases transfer as college credits. Alternative Program/School: Specialized assistance for students requiring non-traditional learning environments. Charter School: These schools are publicly funded but operate separately from public schools. They are designed to provide unique educational opportunities and held accountable through monitoring of academic results. See www.nea.org/home/16332. htm for more information. Private School: Private schools are funded primarily through tuition, rather than relying on public tax dollars, and therefore choose their own educational methods.
