Parent Testimonials
“I am happy to report that Alex is off to Arizona State University on the 19th of August, thanks to all of you at Catalyst High School! I am always raving about your program to other people!”
Nana J., parent
“Our son has friends at Catalyst, and teachers who care about him and work closely with him to tailor his education to his specific needs. The teachers know him so well that he feels completely supported and gets the assistance that he needs to be successful. I don’t know where we would be at this point without Catalyst as an alternative to traditional high school.”
Patti R., parent

“Ed, there is no doubt your school is a hero in my life. You have made a significant difference in both my daughters’ lives. Jenny is a junior now at CU and is on the Dean’s list, and Michelle feels ‘whole’ again.”
Susan O., parent
“I’ve told everyone how much Catalyst impresses me. Kaitlin is doing very well these days, and she and I both credit Catalyst for her improvements.”
Mary H., parent
“Congratulations to Ed and the Catalyst staff for your dedication to this effort! Your commitment to the school and students is tremendous, and we are so fortunate to be part of the Catalyst community.”
Dianne K., parent
“We believe that many things make this an ideal learning environment. The staff does an excellent job of directing and motivating the students. The curriculum is structured in a way that is excellent preparation for college-level courses; much independent research, reading, and writing. Many thanks to the staff for helping our two daughters and many other students succeed.”
Mark and Kim W. parents
“Catalyst has several features that worked for Marissa: First, she was able to tailor her classes to her interests, needs and unique creativity. That really suited her independent personality, and gave her a chance to express herself in positive ways. Second, there is a strong focus on inclusiveness. Marissa told me many times what a relief it was to be away from public high school with all the pressure to conform. Third, because the instructors know your child, they don’t slip through the cracks as they do in a huge public high school. There were many times when my daughter was supported by staff to make wiser choices in her life. Having other concerned, caring adults in her life is worth its weight in gold!”
