PRESCHOOL 2024-2025 SCHOOL YEAR
The preschool at Cold Spring School is a tuition-free Integrated Early Childhood Program for 3 and 4-year-olds. It is a daily, half-day program. The morning 3-year-old session runs from 8:30 – 11:00 am; the afternoon 4-year-old session runs from 12:15 – 2:45 pm. Transportation to and from school must be provided by the parent/guardian. In order to be eligible for our program, your child must have been born on or before 9/1/2021, be fully toilet trained, and be a resident of Belchertown.
Completing this Notice of Interest Google Form by April 26, 2024, will serve as notice of your interest in enrolling your child as a peer model student in our preschool program for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year. This form does not guarantee a slot in the program. If the number of interested peer model candidates exceeds our allotted number of spaces, a lottery will be held. You will be notified if your child has been assigned a slot in early May 2024. If your child is offered a slot at that time, you will be asked to complete the Registration Paperwork.
