"Creating Lifelong
Learners"
Founded in 1989,
the Archuleta County Education Center is a 501-c-3 non-profit
located in beautiful Pagosa Springs, CO. 
The mission of the Archuleta County
Education Center is "To foster responsible citizenship through
programs of literacy, education, vocation and life skills that meet
the needs in our community." This mission is based on the
belief that learning is beneficial and valuable to everyone
throughout life and that individuals living in small communities
should not be deprived of continuing educational
opportunities. Our staff and board are committed to "creating
lifelong learners."
The Archuleta County Education Center provides a variety of
services for youth and other community members.
One of our important programs is adult literacy and basic
skills.
Another important program area is
positive youth development. We operate "after-hours" academic
and enrichment youth programs for children in grades K-8.
Enrichment classes in the arts, languages, and math and science
are offered on an ongoing basis. Teens are hired to
tutor children in the elementary, intermediate and junior high
schools.
Students in our after-school programs often have
better academic performance, behavior and school attendance and
greater expectations for the future.
Throughout the year, we also provide a number of
classes for adults such as first aid and CPR training, computer
software and applications, foreign language, fly fishing and
more.
We also provide many rewarding
opportunities for volunteers to make a real difference in the
community. Please contact our staff to see how you can
participate.
