University Hill Elementary School
We have enjoyed sending our kids to Uni. Hill. The teachers have been wonderful diverse people. Our kids are easily learning Spanish and enjoying each of the grades they are in.
The school has a lot of light and a feeling of space within it.
I find the other parents to be a diverse mix, not the usual Boulder clique-perfect house, over -scheduling the child type.
