Colorado River BOCES AU

Located at 460 Stone Quarry Road in Parachute, Colorado, the Colorado River BOCES Administrative Unit operates as an active regional educational service agency within the broader Rifle metropolitan area. Set against a rural fringe community backdrop, this non-charter organization functions as a collaborative administrative unit designed to support local public school districts rather than serving as a standard neighborhood school system. Its open operating status reflects an ongoing commitment to providing essential shared resources, specialized programs, and administrative oversight to educators and communities across the region.

Because of its specialized role as a regional service agency rather than a traditional instruction-based school district, the entity maintains zero direct operational school facilities and reports no dedicated direct-instruction full-time equivalent (FTE) staff or traditional grade-level ranges in federal records. Instead, it provides overarching regional coordination and administrative services that benefit student populations across multiple member districts. Parents, educators, and educational researchers interested in learning more about the agency's specific cooperative offerings and regional initiatives can visit their website at www.crboces.org or contact the office directly at (970) 285-5265.
