WELCOME TO SCOOPTOO

Posted on 28. Oct, 2009 by KB in Posts

Our blog’s purpose is to help parents navigate the elementary school phase of their children’s education. In Colorado, we are given the opportunity of “choice” in our search. This program gives parents many options when it comes to choosing a school for their child outside of their neighborhood school. The process can become overwhelming with the myriad of choices including faith-based schools, private schools, charter schools, and magnet schools – each with various programs and curriculum. The entire process can be very mind-boggling.

We created scooptoo as a result of this daunting search and discovery process endured not long ago while researching the right school for our children. After charts, graphs, phone calls, tours, interviews, testing, researching, seeking advice from friends, etc. it became a huge commitment and sacrifice of time. We felt strongly about helping other parents in this arena and that a collective resource for information on related topics would help abundantly. So, therein lies the inspiration for scooptoo.

Our blog consists of school profiles, a parent interview series, national and local education related articles, a Two Cents series, posts on educational topics we’ve researched, etc. Please grab a cup of coffee or glass of wine, kick back, and start reading.

It is our belief that the more educated you are with this process, the more empowered you will feel about making informed decisions about your child’s education. We’d love for you to spread the word about scooptoo to your family, friends, and colleagues and wish you the best of luck in your quest.
