School Year Programs

A wide selection of school year programs are offered for children Kindergarten through 5th grades. Programs are licensed through the State of Colorado, and are available for registration online or at the Parks & Recreation Office.

• Afterschool Action: This is daily after school programming based at Soda Creek Elementary from 3:05 PM - 5:45 PM for kindergarten through 5th grades (no preschool). Transportation will be provided from Strawberry Park Elementary, Sleeping Giant School and Soda Creek Elementary each day, and all kids receive snacks. Kids participate in free play time, outdoor play, homework help, arts & crafts, and other developmentally appropriate activities. This City of Steamboat Springs will not be providing transportation from, Steamboat Montessori, Emerald Mountain School or North Routt Charter School. Please contact your school administration directly to discuss transportation options for your child/children. 
• School Days Off:  This program is offered on non-City Holidays when school isn’t in session, including Blues Break, Spring Break, Parent/Teacher Conferences, and Teacher Work Days. The program is offered from 8:00 AM to 5:45 PM, and the cost includes all transportation, activity fees, supervision and supplies.
• Middle School & High School Events:  We offer bi-monthly events for middle and high school students.  See below for upcoming events.
• Therapeutic Recreation:  Our programs are inclusive for all children. We work closely with the Yampa Valley Autism Program to help provide 1:1 aides for children who qualify for their services, and provide aides otherwise for children who don’t.  T-Rec Paperwork can be found in the Document Center. Please contact Megan Troiani for all additional information regarding children who need special accommodations.

All participants are required to have on file a current Recreation Family Record and current Immunization Records prior to attending programs.

All required paperwork, handbooks, calendars, and newsletters can be found in our Document Center.
