Wonderful programs. Great teachers. Excellent school.
The best preschool in Boulder! Every minute in the school will last
forever in my little one's life. And much more . . .

When I started Addison at Bixby I was concerned that the play environment
would not stimulate him mentally, but have found the opposite to
be true. He comes home and works on "homework" on his
own volition and will work on it for quite some time. He copies
words, letters, sounds out words, writes letters, draws, paints,
etc. His attention span has clearly increased and I think that has
a lot to do with allowing the children to choose how long they do
an activity rather than redirecting the whole group to a new activity
when the teachers need to move on.

Megan brought back great international music from an early childhood
conference she attended. The music is beautiful and I feel lucky
that Talia gets to listen to it.
Deb Mizner
I can't tell you how much it means to have a place to
put my child where I don't worry about him during the day, and believe
me, I've experienced the opposite! Thank you Bixby!!
Elaine Berg
We cannot express enough how glad we are that there is
a school like Bixby that our son Andrew can attend. Without exception,
all the teachers in the preschool are kind, caring and show a special
interest in each and every child.

Bixby teachers provide a wonderful, warm and caring place
that feels like home to the kids. The time spent and methods used
on conflict resolution are effective and appreciated. You do what
is arguably the most important job in the world, you do it with
such care, compassion, diligence, and professionalism that I feel
"safe" knowing my daughter is at Bixby for the day or
for the year.
Nan Rosenbloom
I think the entire team is fantastic. Eva has been so
happy at school, and I think she loves ALL her teachers. So many,
many thanks for providing such a wonderful environment!
Bixby Preschool attracts, hires, and supports high-quality teachers who actively build strong relationships with the children. Below are a few comments, collected over time, from parents who expressed their appreciation for this:

The other day, Talia was so happy to see Jack that she
went right over to him, plopped herself on his lap, and gave him
a big hug. No words were spoken and none were needed!
Elaine Belansky
I am very grateful for Rocio. In her quiet way, she gives
a lot of love to Talia. At the dinner table, Talia often tells us
that Rocio is the Mama Tiger.
Carol Little
Jenny has this way of making each child feel so cared
for...I've seen her doing two or three things at once and still
be able to sweep up a child who is having difficulty saying goodbye
to mom or dad. She doesn't just observe - she really interacts and
coaches!
Elaine Berg
I would like to thank you Alison. The interaction I have
had with you has always been positive and it is apparent that you
bring extensive experience, knowledge and most importantly understanding
and empathy to Bixby. This school, parents and kids are very lucky
to have you.
Sherri Cowhig
I would love to let the teachers know that they are a really wonderful group of people. Not only am I impressed by the ways I see them addressing the children, respectfully, but also making certain they treat their friends appropriately. They do a good job of helping the children learn that cliques are not friendly, and to deal with the natural tendencies of children to include some friends and exclude others. Addison will bring up the fact that someone would not play with him that day, or that someone else wasn't his friend, but he works it out in his own conversation and I can see he has been given guidance.
Bixby School is a private, nonprofit school in Boulder, Colorado with programs for preschool through 5th grade. At Bixby, the focus is on cultivating and encouraging children's critical thinking skills, thereby engendering confident, creative, lifelong learners.
