Universal Preschool Updates

We are pleased to announce our participation in the Colorado Universal Preschool Program! 

Doing so allows you to receive funding towards our high-quality preschool services. The enrollment for Universal Preschool opens February 29th and we’d love to serve your family in the 2024-25 school year. Thanks to the new enrollment process, it’s now easier than ever to “match” with us in the Universal Preschool Portal. If your child is eligible for our 4-year-old Preschool Program and you're considering EELC, we invite you to visit us and speak with one of our directors. We're happy to arrange a private tour, answer any questions, and help with the enrollment process. 

         

 

For 3-Year-Old Universal Preschool:

Please know that 3-year-old UPK slots are very limited and are subject to meeting specific eligibility criteria. If you plan on applying for 3-year-old UPK, and your child is NOT on an IEP, you do not need to register in the Universal Preschool online portal. Eligibility will be determined by the Eaton School District/EELC and we will be reaching out to you in early March to go through an eligibility questionnaire. If you are a new family with intent on applying for 3-year-old UPK, please let our office staff know and we will be in touch to go over the eligibility questionnaire.

If your child is currently on an IEP and will be attending EELC next school year, we will be reaching out with further instructions once they become available.

 

For 4-Year-Old Universal Preschool:

To register a 4-year-old for Universal Preschool at EELC, please go to https://upk.colorado.gov/

Please create an account and choose EELC as your top choice. Next, choose the programing option you wish for your child to attend and then give the school a call at 970-454-9400 so that your child can be directly enrolled. 

 

As always, we appreciate your patience and understanding as we yet again navigate the Universal Preschool registration process. It is our intention to keep lines of communication open and keep families informed throughout this process. We are always here to answer any questions and help along the way!
