The Timberline PK-8 Preschool is designed to be an integral part of the educational process at Timberline PK-8 School and the St. Vrain Valley School District. The elementary school provides an excellent preschool facility and atmosphere for a high quality learning experience for your child. The preschool functions under the direction of the Timberline PK-8 Preschool Director and the St. Vrain Valley Community Schools. Financially, the program operates on a self-supporting basis.
Mission Statement
The purpose of Timberline PK-8 Preschool is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for children to develop and grow socially, physically and emotionally. Through the classroom experience, your child will develop independence from the family group and a new awareness of the world around them. Your child will participate in many activities developed to enrich and enhance both small and large motor skills and basic readiness concepts (i.e. colors, numbers, counting, and shapes). Our curriculum is quite flexible and designed to stimulate each child to develop a positive self image through positive experiences and encouragement. With these experiences, we like to believe we will enable your child to become a life long learner and have a smooth entry to kindergarten.
Special Education within St. Vrain Valley Schools identifies children ages birth to 21 who may be eligible to receive special education services. Federal and state law require eligible children to receive free preschool once the student has turned 3 years of age. The Timberline PK-8 Preschool Program works collaboratively with the Child Find staff (District Special Education Department) in the assessment, identification, and programming for children with disabilities. If a child qualifies for special education services, the Child Find team partners with parents and guardians to determine the appropriate placement and services based on each student’s individual needs.
The Universal Preschool (UPK) Colorado program provides state-funded preschool for eligible four-year-olds. Children must be 4 years old on or before October 1 to qualify. Eligible students can receive up to 15 hours of free preschool each week, with additional hours available for children who meet qualifying factors. Families must complete the UPK application to determine eligibility and funding.
