To our new neighbors in the Whittier
Neighborhood...
We understand you
may have questions and concerns about us, The Bijou School, moving
into your beloved Whittier School building.
Be assured that
we are sensitive to those concerns and wish to become the best of neighbors.
We have a great
respect for the traditions of your neighborhood and your school and desire
to become a member of your wonderful neighborhood in every way.
About Our School:
We have a diverse
student body, made up largely of students from around the Pikes Peak region
who have decided that the traditional high schools do not meet the needs of
their individual learning styles.
We attempt to
meet those needs through individualized learning plans and lots of personal
attention from the staff and teachers.
Though we are an
"alternative" high school in the ways we deliver instruction to our
students, we always deliver a curriculum that is in accord with District 11
and Colorado Standards, and our graduates are genuine District 11 High
School Graduates.
District 11 is a
leader in Alternative Education, having responded to the research that shows
that alternative schools of choice are successful by creating several
alternative schools around the city for students who have not found the
success they desire in the traditional high schools.
Our staff are
highly qualified and caring individuals who have a strong commitment to
meeting the needs of our students while maintaining the high standards for
which District 11 is known.
Come see us!
You are most welcome to call or drop
by!
Please let us
know if you have any concerns.
Sincerely,
The Staff of The
Bijou School
