DELC continued to participate as a universal preschool provider, where 21% of our families received universal preschool funding for 15 hours a week of child care. DELC also raised $17,307 during the Colorado Gives Day campaign. DELC has maintained a high quality rating of 4 with Colorado Shines DELC believes that families should be active participants in their childs first formal educational experience and DELC feels that education is a collaboration between children, families, the school and the larger community. DELC families have volunteered over 580 hours to support the education of all children at the Center. In FY 2024 DELC launched a new playground initative with the understanding of the vital need for safe, accessible, and natural outdoor learning spaces where children can thrive. By offering a space that is both accessible and rooted in nature, we ensure that every child has the opportunity to develop essential cognitive, emotional, and physical skills in a nurturing and engaging setting. The current playground, installed in 1978 for an elementary school, no longer serves the needs of our preschool community. Our Board of Directors has allocated $70,000 of unrestricted funds to the project, and has since rasied $230,298, or 76% of the total playrground budget. 699812 true true false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 2 0 true 13 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 7 7 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true false false false false X X Durango Early Learning Center 9702591483 890 E 3rd Ave Durango CO 81301 Rebecca S Trefry Executive Director 40.00 0.00 X 72666 0 0 Jessie Christiansen Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lexi Allmon Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Jamie DeNier-Rossi Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Emily Missildine Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Emily Phillips Board Member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Molly Pagano Vice President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Julia Abner Board member 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Savannah Porter Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Paige DeNier President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 72666 0 0 0 false false false 45212 105013 150225 Tuition 900099 530753 530753 CCAP 900099 45212 45212 Universal Pre-K 900099 73802 73802 IEP Funding 900099 6811 6811 656578 13618 13618 2450 1248 1202 1202 821623 670196 0 1202 49682 49682 71508 57207 10726 3575 429111 429111 10477 10477 40052 38893 869 290 18703 18703 2119 2119 601 601 2245 1316 929 3646 3646 14466 11572 2170 724 19418 15534 2913 971 13835 11078 2436 321 Supplies and Equipment 16515 16515 Repairs and Maint 42848 34278 6428 2142 Professional Development 19633 13183 6450 Food 3882 3882 1395 1319 76 760136 699812 52301 8023 178235 183038 70690 15201 16135 10920 866716 287161 598973 579555 206183 214015 7400 18450 1016912 1081883 22718 30827 22718 30827 X 968061 964823 26133 86233 994194 1051056 1016912 1081883 61487 -4625 0 X false false false X 93685 111524 137377 129033 150224 621843 93685 111524 137377 129033 150224 621843 0 0 0 0 0 0 621843 6802 4273 9671 6648 8993 36387 6802 4273 9671 6648 8993 36387 100487 115797 147048 135681 159217 658230 0.94470 0.98760 0.06000 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 305804 305804 428142 222159 205983 87697 27364 60333 45073 37638 7435 579555 true Needs Based Scholarship and Discounted Tuition 19 49682 Cost Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11 The board of directors is provided a copy of the Form 990 prior to the monthly board meeting to approve the filing.
