Colorado River BOCES

Since 2017, Colorado River BOCES (Board of Cooperative Educational Services) has proudly supported school districts from the Roaring Fork Valley to De Beque. Headquartered in Parachute, Colorado, we provide a range of vital educational services designed to meet the diverse needs of our rural communities.

Colorado River BOCES offers leadership and specialized services in special education, oversees Yampah Mountain High School, facilitates alternative teacher licensure programs, coordinates regional Career and Technical Education initiatives, and administers Colorado's supplemental and blended learning programs.

BOCES organizations are essential pillars of Colorado’s public education system, and Colorado River BOCES plays a crucial role in expanding opportunities for students and educators across our member districts. By working collaboratively, we help ensure that every student has access to high-quality programs and resources that might otherwise be unavailable in smaller or rural settings.
