OUR FACILITY
In 2013, Riverhouse met our goal of building a new facility that would allow us to expand our programming, be ADA accessible, and be sustainable long-term. The facility that was created incorporates design elements and artwork that encourage active learning, awaken the senses, reflect the importance of age-appropriate learning spaces and furnishings, and ensure the safety and security of all Riverhouse students.
The new facility has state-of-the-art classrooms, as well as indoor and outdoor play areas. It also has a kitchen designed to support our food program, a therapeutic meeting space for special needs children, expanded office space, storage space for staff, and a hiking trail that starts from the center's doorstep and climbs up to Fort Lewis College. Fruit trees outside are an added bonus.
It takes a village to build a center and Riverhouse Children's Center thanks everyone who made this project possible! We are so grateful to the Friends of Riverhouse who made our dreams come true!
Riverhouse has 3 beautiful playground areas for kids and are separated by age for Infants, Toddlers, and Preschoolers. The playgrounds are covered by tarps during the summer for shade and cooling and are fenced and secured with gates to ensure children can play outdoors safely. Playgrounds have sandboxes, slides, bike areas, water tables, and other fun features for kids to play with.
​
Our toddler and preschool rooms have child-sized toilets for potty training and child-sized sinks for hand-washing.
​
To mitigate risk and abide by state regulations, Riverhouse has a Risk Management Plan. All Riverhouse employees are required to undergo training through FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) to ensure the safety of all children and staff of Riverhouse Children’s Center. Colorado State Rules and Regulations require that Riverhouse Children’s Center perform monthly fire drills, and quarterly Lock-down, Lock-out, Shelter-in-Place, Active Intruder, and Site Evacuation Drills.
​
Our school is always locked and the front door is secured with electronic key fob entry, so only authorized staff and families may enter during operating hours. Visitors must sign in. Security cameras are closely monitored by administrative staff.
​
Parents can trust Riverhouse does everything possible to ensure the safety and care of all children.
