Colorado Universal Preschool
Universal Preschool (UPK) Colorado ensures that every child in the year before they are eligible for kindergarten is eligible for half-day (15 hours), state-funded, voluntary preschool beginning in the 2023-24 school year. Families of children in the year before they are eligible for kindergarten with certain qualifying factors, are eligible for an additional 15 hours stacked on top of the half-day programming, bringing those children to full- day programming. UPK Colorado allows families to choose the right setting for their child.
How To Claim This "Free Money"
Step 1
Complete your UPK Application
​
-
You will need proof of date of birth and residency for your student
-
On the “search” screen, you must type in your school’s name to select Primrose as your 1st choice to ensure continuity of care is marked as a priority to “match” to our Primrose school in the UPK system. (If you do not do this, your child may not be “matched” with our Primrose School and may delay your ability to retain enrollment with us and benefit from the tuition credit offered by the state-wide UPK program.)
-
Be sure to add all younger siblings in your household to further strengthen your “match” to our Primrose school
Step 2
Once you are matched to our Primrose school in the UPK system, we will proceed with our Primrose Fall Registration process that you are already familiar with when we issue Fall Preferred Pre-Registration Packets in Mid-February.
