Why Should I Send My Children To Preschool?
Schooling is an important part of life. The early years can be a strong base for your child to gain the
knowledge, skills and confidence to become a successful learner.
Families are an important part of the learning puzzle for children. A preschool program will not only
encourage your child and help them develop the needed knowledge and skills, but it also can support
you in your role as a parent.
What Is the Colorado Preschool Program (CPP)?
CPP allows eligible children to go to high quality preschool at no charge for families who qualify.
Children are funded to attend preschool for a minimum of 10 hours per week during the school year.
CPP classrooms meet quality standards and have small class sizes to provide a better learning
environment for children.
Parents may choose a childcare center or preschool for their child depending on availability.
