Our School
At the Salida Early Childhood Center, we believe that the early years are the foundation for future school success. Our programs provide developmentally appropriate learning experiences and activities that nurture child growth and development. Our curriculum prepares children for school and a lifelong love of learning. Our staff assists and supports families in self-sufficiency by providing information about local resources in the area.
Our programs include:
Home based visitation programs for pregnant moms and babies
Early Head Start center-based program for children ages 1 and walking-3 years
Preschool program for children ages 3-5, taught by CDE licensed teachers
We are funded by Head Start, Colorado Preschool Program, Special Education, ECARE, Early Head Start, and tuition for District employees. We waitlist based on child and family need.
