Rocky Mountain PBS is committed to the life-long learning of our community, starting with the earliest years. We are proud to partner with Colorado parents, caregivers, nonprofit organizations, and educators to support families and children.

Universal Preschool (UPK) Colorado allows families to choose the right setting for their child, whether it is in a licensed community-based, school-based or home-based preschool setting. Families of children in the year before they are eligible for kindergarten, and qualifying 3-year-olds, can apply now for UPK Colorado for the 2023-24 school year.

UPK Colorado is not a first-come, first-served program. All applications submitted by February 24 will be matched together, with additional matching rounds to follow. You can begin your application at any time and return to it as many times as you like before submitting. All families who have already submitted applications will be able to make changes from February 17-24.
