Community Schools Childcare

St. Vrain’s Community Schools provide onsite extended learning day opportunities by tying student achievement to our programming, expanding educational opportunities for preschool children ages 3 and 4, and school age children five to thirteen. Additionally, programs offer indoor and outdoor recreation and nutritious snacks. Parents and students are encouraged to suggest ideas, toys, materials and snacks that would improve their children’s experience. Our childcare programs are licensed through the Colorado Department of Human Services.
