Three-Day Integrated Preschool Program
Our three-day program serves children who will be three years of age by September 1, 2012.  There are morning and afternoon sessions Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. The Preschool follows the Shaker Lane Elementary calendar; however instead of 12 half days, the preschool will have 9 half day Wednesdays devoted to in-service education for preschool staff.  On those 9 days there will be no afternoon preschool.  Tuition costs are determined by vote of the Littleton School Committee. Tuition for 2011-12 was $250 per month for the morning session and $225 for the afternoon session, paid monthly.  

 Morning session: 9:00 to 11:30 A.M.
Afternoon session: 12:00 to 2:30 P.M.
