As a parent it's difficult to trust others with your children but the Denver International schoolhouse has been an incredible environment for my two daughters. They have loved their teachers and are in an excellent academic environment. I love that they can speak both Spanish and English I can see how that has accelerated their learning.
My children are fluent in Spanish and now go to a full immersion school and were through the kindergarten reading requirements within the first month of school. Check them out, highly recommend! Denver International Schoolhouse is a preschool that prepares children ages 2 to 6 years old, to be ready for elementary school.

Services
DIS only offers our full day program, Monday-Friday 7am-6pm, in the infant room. Our full immersion program is structured so that the children are completely immersed in the second language (Spanish) for the majority (90%) of their day. The full day children receive snacks, if age appropriate. Families provide formula and baby food.
The mommy and me session is a way for parents and their child to experience the school first hand. What to expect: Parents will spend the first 30 minutes in the classroom with their child to help them get a feel for the atmosphere of the school. The following 75 minutes allow your child to participate in all of the days activities with our existing students.
Spanish Immersion means that your child will be immersed in (surrounded by) the Spanish language during their preschool day. They will experience all the joys of "regular" preschool - all will be presented in Spanish. Our unique Spanish language immersion program gives children the invaluable skill of comprehension and use of the Spanish language while preparing them to excel at Kindergarten in the Cherry Creek School District.

The children are completely immersed in the second language (Spanish) for the majority of their day. It is a natural, flowing part of their environment and, before long, it is completely natural. Denver International SchoolHouse is a full immersion language school, meaning educators speak in Spanish 80% of the day, every day - with the understanding that we nurture and support children, if needed, in their native language (English).

Miss Jaime and the DIS program were truly life-changing for our family. It is an environment that nurtures creativity and learning while still feeling loving and very personal, and our girls looked forward to being there every day. They have since "graduated" to kindergarten and beyond, but the social and language skills they learned have stuck with them, and they are thriving at school. Highly, highly recommend!!!

My daughters, who are now in 3rd and 1st grade, attended DIS when it was still Bright Minds Childcare, and I very highly recommend this program. I initially wasn't looking for dual immersion, but it was such an amazing gift for my girls. The staff is caring and attentive, and not only did they develop incredibly Spanish-speaking skills, but they were both ahead of grade level in English when they entered kindergarten. My son will be going to DIS once he's old enough!

DIS is an amazing school. My son and daughter received such great care and an unbelievable education from the school. I didn't know much about Spanish immersion learning, but what a benefit and advantage my kids have over kids their age. one is bilingual now and the other is own her way. Its such a gift especially sense I don't speak Spanish

We looked very hard for a Spanish emersion school close to our home. We were so grateful when we found DIS!!! Jaime and her team of teachers helped my twins transition from a regular daycare into a preschool environment. My boys are constantly asking how to say words in Spanish and have a new excitement for learning!

I can't say enough good things about Denver International Schoolhouse and of-course the staff who make it a safe, clean and loving, learning experience for children. My 5 year old was there for 6 months and was more then prepared for kindergarten. My 3 year old is still attending and is excelling. They both use Spanish in there everyday language. The yoga and music classes have them doing yoga at home and singing and dancing all the time. The teachers are wonderful and have made the children's time there an enriching and educational experience. I highly recommend this as a place to entrust your

I have been so pleased with my son, Cooper, being totally prepared to enter Kindergarten with such ease. Cooper went to Denver International Schoolhouse since he was 2 years old. The staff is very friendly and professional. They really do have the children's best interest at heart. I would recommend them to anyone who is considering in enrolling.

Phenomenal school, I cant praise Jamie and her staff enough. My son's been in their care since the "Bright Mind days". Both teachers he's had Mrs. Gabby and Mrs. Mary are very attentive and knowledgeable. I love the music, dance, yoga, and Spanish immersion they do. If you're looking for a top notch program to put your children in, look no further.

I can't say enough great things about Mrs. Jaime and her staff. Everyone always treated my two kiddos as if they were their own children. We had issues at another daycare and had to remove my daughter. She had food allergies and the staff gave her other children's food on several occasions. So, when we met Jaime, we were already on edge about having to place our daughter in a new environment. From day one, Jaime has taken care of my daughter amazingly and my daughter loved every minute with Mrs. Jaime. Both of my kiddos are now school age but continued in immersion programs and are well on their
