ABOUT US
every great story has a great beginning...
Here at Waterstone Preschool, we believe that all children are precious and that early childhood is a time to promote growth in all developmental areas. We understand that children learn in a variety of ways and strive to meet children where they are socially, emotionally, spiritually, and cognitively.
In our program children participate in large group activities; purposeful play-based learning centers, music, physical activity, and socialization with teachers and peers. Waterstone Preschool is licensed by the State of Colorado Department of Human Services and actively participates in the Colorado Shines quality improvement initiative. We closely follow the Jefferson County school calendar. Our school day is 9:30am to 1:30pm.
Waterstone Preschool values relationships with parents and families and their interaction with the larger community. Therefore, we are intentional to support and provide many opportunities throughout the school year for parents to participate in parenting classes, social events, and at-home learning activities.
Universal PreK
Waterstone Preschool participates in Universal Preschool (UPK). UPK Colorado ensures that every child who is 4 by October 1st is eligible for 10-15 hours of state-funded preschool beginning in the 2023-24 school year. At Waterstone, families are charged tuition for hours attended in excess of the UPK funded hours. For more information about how Waterstone is participating in UPK, and an opportunity to view our facility, we invite you schedule a tour.
