Free full-day kindergarten is coming to Coronado Elementary starting in the 2019-20 school year.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR JEFFCO FAMILIES
Kindergarten is currently not a requirement in Colorado. However, research shows that starting students on their academic path in kindergarten promotes children's enthusiasm, initiative, persistence, and engagement in learning.
Starting in August 2019, all full-day kindergarten programs in Jeffco will be free. For some families, this is a savings of almost $3000 a year.
Jeffco will continue to offer half-day kindergarten programs as well. Call the school at 303-982-3737 to find out what program would best serve your needs.
1. Log into or create a Jeffco Connect account to establish your student's record or update her or her existing record.
2. After updating information or creating an account go to EnrollJeffco to enroll in your neighborhood school or apply for a school of your choice.
