Finding a best fit school for your student and family can feel overwhelming. And, because Denver is a nationally recognized and award-winning system of choice, the number and variety of options available can increase confusion. The state of Colorado has 178 unique school districts. The Denver Public School (DPS) system (the largest in the state) has almost 100 Elementary Schools, more than a dozen K-8s, almost 30 Middle Schools, almost a dozen 6-12s, and more than 40 High Schools.

 

The state of Colorado has over 500 private schools, each with potentially unique enrollment processes, age cutoffs, and application calendars.

Keely works with families living in and moving into/within Colorado, and specializes in meeting each family where they are, helping families make informed educational decisions based on objective research, available programming, and documented student needs, for public and private PreK all the way to High School. 

 

She is known for her expertise in consolidating and simplifying messaging around all things public and private school, and for her deep knowledge of not only what is happening at the district and department level, but at the individual school level, as well.

 

Keely also has extensive experience researching gifted, highly gifted, twice-exceptional (2e), and special education programming throughout Colorado. She partners with Meryl Duguay (Founder, Duguay Educational Consulting & Advocacy) to support students with learning differences and disabilities.

​

And, Keely supports Divorced/Divorcing/Two-Household families with School Choice decisions and disputes, as well - preparing research and/or Comprehensive Educational Reports for (and to avoid) Mediation, Arbitration, and Court.

​

Educational decisions are strongest when informed by reliable data, comprehensive research, and a clear understanding of available options. Keely connects parents with objective data, research, and resources - and demystifies the process - from start to finish.
