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.
