Wyatt Academy is truly a neighborhood school that welcomes all people with open arms. The staff helps foster a sense of community while also seeking to individualize and intentionally help each student in their education. I have confidence that my children will receive a quality education, have fun while learning and do so among staff, peers and a community rooting for their success!

I am thrilled to share my experience with Wyatt Academy, a school that has profoundly impacted our family. As an alumnus (illumi), I look back on my time there with fondness, reflecting on the strong foundation it provided me both academically and personally. The dedicated teachers and engaging curriculum ignited my love for learning, and I am grateful for the values instilled in me during those formative years.

Now, as a parent, Im delighted that my son has been attending Wyatt Academy since kindergarten. His progress and enthusiasm for school have exceeded my expectations. The faculty truly cares about each students individual growth, fostering a nurturing environment where children are encouraged to explore their interests and develop their strengths. I appreciate the open communication between teachers and parents, which helps me stay informed and engaged in my sons education.

Additionally, Im excited to announce that my daughter will be joining Wyatt Academy soon. Knowing the positive experiences my son has had, I have no doubt that she will thrive in this wonderful community as well. I highly recommend Wyatt Academy to any family looking for a supportive, enriching environment for their children. The commitment to excellence in education and character development is unparalleled.

Thank you, Wyatt Academy!

Wyatt is an exceptional community and has been a second home for my kids. The social-emotional support is second to none and staff really get to know the students.

We have been at the school since Kinder through (still in) 4th grade and despite what happened with the near closure last year the school is thriving and we could not be any prouder to be Parents At Wyatt (PAW). This is such a great school with a fantastic teaching and administration team! My kid loves going to school and loves his teachers. We have a community meeting each Friday and it's always wonderful to see how happy the kids are, especially how proud they are when they get called upon for any awards and how they hug their teachers.

Wyatt Academy is a true community school that focuses well on whole-child learning. Students are supported socially, emotionally, and academically. As well, there are free after school resources and familial clothing/donation resources.

Excellent Elementary School! Our son started in 4th but looking back I wished he went there from kindergarten! Our son had their Ed at this diversified school that truly cares about his success and future. THRY also have a wide variety of programs and value students and parents ideas. Highly recommended this school and wish it was a middle school also!

This is our first year at Wyatt and we are so happy with the school. They have been incredibly supportive of our student's social/emotion needs as a kindergartner. Her teacher is compassionate, engaging, lighthearted (handles a classroom of 17 5 yr olds like a pro). She comes home everyday and tells me how much she loves school. This is a very diverse school which was important to us when choosing a school. The administration has been great and is excellent with communication regarding our student. We love Wyatt!

We haven't encountered any bullying. The students have been very respectful and I have been impressed with the way the older students interact and support the younger students.

So happy to have our kindergartener at Wyatt. It has been a wonderfully supportive school.

The school works hard to teacher and celebrate the core values: Wonder, Joy, Community, and Opportunity!

Posted: October 29, 2019

The principals at Wyatt are so dedicated to our community. They are welcoming, friendly, and work hard to ensure a positive school culture,

Posted: October 29, 2019

There is a strong no bullying policy at Wyatt. There are social emotional groups led by amazing school counselors, and parent meetings whenever there is potential bullying. The school is very preventive rather than reactive!

I absolutely love Wyatt Academy. This year Wyatt was GREEN on the Denver Public Schools SPF, and it had the highest growth of ANY school in DPS! Our kids, teachers, and staff are incredible. The teachers and admin make the school such a welcoming and safe place. My kids love going to school each day. They are challenged, but also have time for fun and friendship. We love Wyatt!!

My son has homework every night, but it is always a continuation of what he is learning in school. He is always prepared to do his homework, and always has the chance to review it in school the next day.

They test each individual and place them in the appropriate reading level so that no child is left behind.

I asked my daughter about bulling and she knows a lot about that since she was bullied at her former school. She says that she has not been bullied and feels safe.

Posted: September 4, 2019

I give it a 10 they are great! I know that in the past years there has been a lot going on. I am not going to lie I too was scared when reading all the negative reviews but choose to place her here this year and so far Its been great! The staff is welcoming and the children are actually alert and learning. I know because I walked in to observe. Change is difficult and I beleive Wyatt is doing a great job!

Posted: September 4, 2019

My daughter since day one has came home with homework and she loves it! At her other school she rarely came home with homework. I love the way the teacher has the homework packet organized and is easy to understand. My daughter has reading, math and spelling for every night of the week. I have seen so much growth in so little time.

Posted: September 4, 2019

The teachers here are great! They are very welcoming and show care and concern for our children. When I have a question I can easily sent them a email and have a response by the end of their day.

Wyatt is going on their third principal in 3 years. Extreme emphasis on testing, very little support for teachers in day to day instruction. No curriculum....teachers have to make it up on their own. Unapproachable administration. Some of the best teachers anywhere have all left in the past 3 years. Constant new staff... teachers leave in the middle of the year with no explanation. Chaos!! Rated "F" by state for many good reasons. Don't believe it when they tell you the school is improving or trending upward. All responsibility for school failure is put on teacher's backs due to lack of administrative support. Administration for the most part is rarely available for teachers or students other than to discipline and only comes into classrooms to evaluate teachers twice per year. Admin unaware of what is happening in classrooms on a daily basis. DO NOT ENROLL AT WYATT!!

Posted: July 5, 2016

Due to the fact that Wyatt does not have any curriculum and teachers were required to create weekly curriculum on top of weekly lesson plans(without additional time to do this each week) it was nearly impossible for teachers to be effective in instruction....they are teachers not curriculum writers!!

Posted: July 5, 2016

Homework is not proven to help students. Although required by administration most teachers did not give it consistently due to the amount of research that supports no homework.

Posted: July 5, 2016

There are individual teachers who recognize the importance of these values and cultivate them within their classrooms. There is a school wide statement about culture that includes these concepts but it is mostly just emphasized at the beginning of the year, except for the above mentioned situations with individual teachers.

By far the most horrible school in the Denver area the the staff there are by far the best people there with such enthusiasm ......(sarcasm) and is horrible run there constantly changing the school i mean you expect students to treat you with respect (common sense) I've been going there since 2nd grade till 8th grade yet i don't feel prepared to go to high school

Wyatt works hard to meet all students needs. I am amazed with the teachers and all the awards Wyatt wins. Did you know Wyatt was given the Department of Educations Center of Excellence award for two years in a row? Wyatt was also just awarded The Governor's Distinguished Improvement Awards. Only 22 schools in Denver received this award. I am proud of Wyatt and all the work it does.
