Are all staff members background-checked and CPR/first-aid certified?
Yes. Every Primrose staff member undergoes a thorough background check before joining our school. All staff are also CPR and first–aid certified, so you can feel confident your child is in safe, prepared hands every day.
What curriculum or educational philosophy do you follow?
Our school uses the proprietary Primrose Schools Balanced Learning® curriculum, which is research-informed and designed to nurture the whole child — intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically. We believe in balancing teacher-guided learning with purposeful play to build a strong foundation for the future.
How do you support school readiness and the transition to kindergarten?
All of our programs are designed in age-appropriate ways to prepare children for kindergarten and beyond. We focus on early literacy and numeracy as well as social-emotional skill development — so children arrive at kindergarten confident and ready to thrive. 96% of Primrose Schools Pre-K students met ASQ benchmarks for problem solving.*
What are your hours of operation?
We are open Monday through Friday from 7:00 am-5:45 pm.
How do you keep parents informed about their child's day?
Connecting school to home is one of the ways we help children thrive. We use the Procare app to share daily updates and photos so you stay connected to your child’s joy, learning and special moments
Does Primrose School of Denver North accept the Denver Preschool Program?
Yes. Primrose School of Denver North is located in the City and County of Denver, and we are a participating Denver Preschool Program provider. Every Denver family with a child in the year before kindergarten qualifies for DPP tuition credits regardless of income, neighborhood or immigration status, and DPP pays us directly to lower your monthly cost.
Can I combine DPP with Colorado UPK at your school?
Yes. Colorado Universal Preschool funding covers at least 15 hours per week in the year before kindergarten, and Denver Preschool Program credits layer on top of that. Because we sit inside Denver city limits, families here can access both. Call us and we will walk through what your combined support looks like for your schedule.
What elementary schools do Primrose School of Denver North graduates attend?
Our graduates most often go on to Denver Public Schools in the Central Park area, including Inspire Elementary and Denver Green School Northfield just south of us on Elmira Court, along with Willow Elementary, Swigert International School and Westerly Creek Elementary. Our Pre-K program is built around the readiness skills these schools expect in kindergarten.
