Kindergarten

For the 2012-2013 school year, kindergarten applications will be accepted between December 1, 2011 and January 17, 2012. Registration continues after January 17th, but choice of AM, PM or Full Day may be limited.

Please submit kindergarten enrollment information (see below) to your school of choice. Any additional questions can also be answered by calling the school (school contact information) you are submitting your application to.

As your child enters Kindergarten, we want to make you aware of the complete menu of Kindergarten programming options available for the upcoming school year.

  • St. Vrain Valley School District will offer the following Kindergarten program configurations:
    • Traditional Half Day Sections (half days AM/PM, 5 days per week)
    • Half Day, Alternate Day Sections (1 half day, 2 full days per week)
    • Full Day, Every Day Sections (full days, 5 days per week)

Please contact your school of attendance for specific kindergarten schedule information.

  • All Full Day, Every Day Kindergarten programs implement the following pay structure:
    • If you choose to enroll your child in a Full Day, Every Day Kindergarten, there will be a tuition charge for the “other half” of the day.
      • Full Day Kindergarten Program Tuition - $275 per month (September – May) $125 non-refundable registration fee due at time of registration (will be applied to September payment)
    • If you would like to enroll your child in a Full Day, Every Day program, but would need tuition assistance, your school will ask you to complete a “Free and Reduced Lunch” application. If your child qualifies for “free lunch”, there is no charge for the full day program. If your child qualifies for the “reduced lunch”, there would be a reduced fee.
    • If the tuition assistance noted above does not apply and you feel you may still need assistance, please speak with your building principal for additional options (scholarships or other tuition assistance programs may be available).

**New this year – please visit the links below for a complete breakdown of how tuition dollars are spent.

  • The above information applies to all children including children with disabilities who have an Individualized Education Program (IEP). The Half Day District Kindergarten Program is offered at no expense (Free Appropriate Public Education) to families. The services specified in an IEP will be delivered during that portion of the day. In rare instances, when it is necessary to extend the school day, this must be approved by the District Director of Special Education.

Please contact your school of attendace for additional information on tuition assistance.
