Before School Program
Before school care offers students the ability to start their day in a relaxed, fluid environment to create a smooth transition into the school day. Students are able to play a variety of games, let their creativity flow with a craft or art project, get some energy out with a gym game, or participate in the featured activity!
All students get the opportunity to eat a FREE healthy breakfast provided by DCSD Nutrition Services. DCSD students can enjoy this perk thanks to Colorado's Free School Lunch Initiative!
After School Program
After school care offers students the opportunity to unwind and have a smooth transition into an stress-free evening with families. Once all accounted for, students will enjoy some fresh air outside or a fun-filled game in the gym to get that energy out! After a while, students may also choose to play some free-choice games or enjoy the day's featured activity.
All students are provided with an afternoon snack. They are not required to eat snack but are highly encouraged.
