Very little is known about the Benedictine Sisters of Chicago's time in Progresso, Colorado. All this sub-series contains is a sheet of paper noting that there was a vacation school in the town, and a brief archive note listing Sr. Mary Cornella, OSB, and Sr. Anne Spehar, OSB, as the only Sisters who taught in the town.

This sub-series has an archive note listing 1929 as the only year a vacation school was taught in Prospect Heights, Colorado, probably by Sr. Scholastica Hrusovsky, OSB.

The only item in this series is an archives note listing several Sisters who taught vacation schools in Rifle, Colorado, throughout the 1940s.

This series contains a list of Sisters who taught in Rockvale, Colorado, from the late 1920s until the the middle of the 1940s.

This sub-series contains an archives note listing the Sisters who taught vacation schools in Rocky Ford, Colorado, along with a couple news clippings of events relating to the Benedictine Sisters of Chicago's presence in the town. Also included is a photograph of several pupils from one summer, although the year is unknown, and it appears they do not comprise the whole class, as there are more children cut off on the right left side of the frame.

This sub-series contains a short list of Sisters who taught summer schools of religion in Rye, Colorado, throughout the 1980s.

This sub-series is relatively slim considering the Benedictine Sisters of Chicago spent over half the 20th century teaching vacation schools in Salida, Colorado. Beyond a list of Sisters who ran the town's summer schools of religion, the only material included is a page from "Our Community" that briefly mentions Salida and a map highlighting the town's location.
