Overall, this is a great school. We purposely moved into their boundaries so my kids could go here. The infrastructure, including technology, is fantastic. The teachers are superb and the admin is supportive. My constructive criticism would be (1) teachers need to be paid more. I was really disappointed to hear how little they are paid. (2) Students need more recess time. I'm surprised how little time my kids get. I'm pretty sure it's been proven more recess time = better in-class behavior and learning. Overall, my kids are thriving here, than you DC.

I never could imagine, that the teachers can be so indifferent to the student's needs, for 3 years I had met just one good teacher, and no homework at all it is wrong!!1

Do you want a school that will reach each student, build on their strengths and support them in their weakness, treat them as individual as possible and has compassion? If so, this is not the school for your child. I had two students at Diamond Canyon, and let me warn you this is the worst school we have ever encountered. Everything from the manner-less office staff, unhelpful nurse, to the teachers themselves. There is not one positive thing I can say. My daughter, whom is now at Boulder H.S doing fantastic if i might add... still says D.C is a unfortunate memory of her childhood. We are glad this school year is over and will never have anything to do with this school again.

The front desk helped you when asked but you could always tell they were annoyed or bothered with helping you out.The staff seems ok. There are a few really helpful kind staff members but most of them are nothing to brag about and seem very fake.
