I grew up in district 20 attending Pioneer Elementary through Rampart for High school. Woodmen-Roberts is such a special community and truly a gem. I have always been pleased with this district. But the staff and administration and planned activities at this school go above and beyond. Both my kids have thrived.

This school is great at setting high expectations for students to be well rounded individuals! Lots of STEAM opportunities and the IB curriculum keeps science and social studies throughout the curriculum and provides a Spanish language program to the school!
Adventure club provides before and after school activities for students as well!

I have had experience with 5 schools in the district as a parent. I have been happy with all these schools in the district; however, I absolutely love working at Woodmen-Roberts Elementary. The staff is amazing and I love the community. The students are a joy and the administration actively partners with families and staff.

We have serious concerns about the administration at this school. We have repeatedly voiced concerns about safety and how they handle bullying and violence, and have been ignored. We do not feel like our children are safe at this school, and we do not feel like they have been supported or cared for by the administration. We have been very pleased with the teachers, but they also receive no support. We will be leaving this school next year.

Woodmen Roberts is a great little school. Ive had three kids at this school and they do fun project learning at different grades levels, (3rd grade Market day) especially for grades 3-5. I also really love that the lower grades gets 3 recesses a day. With the push for more academics for the little ones, its so refreshing to have that for Kinder and 1st.
Another thing I really appreciate is the positive reinforcement model of the Roar Cards.
After visiting several schools in D20, I really appreciate this little school community.

We are a military family and moved here this summer. I was nervous for my son as he has an IEP and this would be his first time changing schools. However, Woodmen Roberts has exceeded my expectations! His teacher has been able to accommodate many of his IEP requirements within the classroom so he spends less time in pullout services. I was nervous how he would be treated by the other kids due to his delays, but his classmates have been very accepting and he is making new friends. Woodmen Roberts really strives to create a positive environment for its students, and thanks to their efforts, my son's transition to his new school has been a success.

This school is run by mean girls who grew up to be mean moms.
The academics are average. Look up the state tests. They don't shine in any area. They fully embrace the IB "attitude" which if you think that's the cat's meow, you'll agree. However, the IB "attitude" is NOT one of inclusion. If you are a new transfer to this school, you WILL be excluded from everything social. We have more than one child in this school and we moved from another school in another state. In two school years, our children have been invited to 1 party and no informal social get-togethers. I've invited kids time after time after time to birthday parties and playing at the park or our house and every time I'm told "no". It's not that they don't have parties, they do. But, they ONLY invite certain kids and your kid gets to hear about it and come home in tears. And the tears when no one comes to their party. Lots of tears. It was not like this at our other school which was very inclusive and my kids were constantly invited to things.
The school is moving toward a more tech approach to teaching (more time on computers). One of our kids tests above-grade. Instead of having more instruction from his teacher, he gets an iPad handed to him. If I'm going to have my kids taught by an iPad, why do I send them to school? The answer was for socialization. However, at this school, unless the mean moms accept your kid, there is no socialization. One of my kids constantly talked about another kid in class. I asked that mom if we could get to the kids together. Not only did she tersely tell me no, the next day her kid told my kid they weren't allowed to be friends because he already had "too many". Yes, you read that right. A mother told her kid not to play with another kid at school because the other kid was new.
The school pretends to like new comers. They even have a "welcome committee". Hahaha! And, the new principal (in her second year) tries to include everyone. However, she seems to be a puppet to the interests of a select, very vocal, few parents who have a knack for demanding things and getting their demands met. And guess who those parents are...the mean moms. This will be our last year at Woodmen-Roberts. It will be a pain to drive our kids to another school out of our neighborhood but given that they have no friends, I don't think they are going to miss the school at all.

In the past, we've been happy with the quality of the teachers within the constraints they are given with the IB curriculum and the D20 requirements. However, with the new technology initiative, the teachers will be hardly teaching. So, if you want your kid taught by an iPad, this is the school for you. If you want your kid taught by a person, go somewhere else.

Excellent. Very attentive to students and parents. Our son enjoys this school. We chose to live here because of this school.
