Canyon Country Discovery Center

03/19/2025

Four Corners School & Canyon Country Discovery Center (CCDC) have been undergoing a necessary reorganization for the past 9 months and will remain closed through the spring.
We are happy to share that our organization has retained ownership of the campus in Monticello and we are working with partners to come back online in the near future!
One of our partners, Bears Ears Partnership (BEP), has been extremely generous since last summer during this challenging time to ensure some of our historic programs have a path forward. We are immensely grateful to them for providing support in our reorganization and eventual reopening.
We look forward to resuming our great community programs and support for the region.

Stay tuned!
