The Colorado Department of Early Childhood (CDEC) is charged with operating the program. By now, enrolled families should have been matched with a Universal Preshool Provider for the 2024-2025 school year. Here are a few useful links to the Colorado UPK program.​

Preschool Readiness
Wondering if your little one is ready for preschool? Every child grows and learns at their own pace, so there's no one-size-fits-all checklist. When your child is ready, their preschool experience can be much more enriching and enjoyable.
​
As a guide to see if your child is ready, use the following PIECES assessment.
P
Potty Trained
Your child should be able to let the staff know when they need to go and to be able to go by themselves. Of course, it's perfectly normal for kids to occasionally need a hand with tricky clothing, and we're more than happy to help with that.
I
Independent
Some good indicators of an appropriate level of independence is having the ability to play alone or with a few classmates without active guidance or require constant attention from a teacher. They should also have the ability to eat their snacks and lunch without assistance.
E
Expressive
Your child should be able to express their feelings and needs to others through a combination of words and gestures. Being able to connect socially as well as use language to explain ideas and share thinking with others is key to successful learning in all areas.
C
Concentration
Your child should be able to focus on a 10-15 minute activity, such as teacher-directed lesson, individual play, or a listening to a short story being read by the teacher. They should also be able to understand and perform simple directions from the teacher.
E
Emotional
Your child should be able to separate from you and say "goodbye" at drop-off without a lot of anxiety. They should also be able to appropriately engage with teachers and and peers throughout the day. Excessive anxiety, sometimes expressed through continuous crying, can be traumatic for your child.
