Preschool Program

The Heatherwood Preschool Program educates children identified through Child Find who have educational and therapeutic needs as well as typical peers. The Boulder Valley School District preschools are designed to meet the physical, emotional, social, intellectual, and language development needs of students utilizing developmentally appropriate classroom practices. The teaching strategies employed in the preschools recognize that young children learn through active exploration and interaction with responsive adults, other children, and open-ended experiences which provide rich opportunities for learning. (CDHS Regulation: 7.702.41.A) The preschool serves children ages 3-5 years old. Some programs may have a “cut-off” age based upon the child’s age on September 30 of the current school year. (CDHS Regulation: 7.702.41.B) The school hours are from 8:00 AM to 11:30 PM daily. The District also assures that children enrolled in preschool are at sites which follow the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS) Rules and Regulations for Child Care Centers.
