Typical Peers 2025-2026 School Year

Shelton Public Schools provides a preschool program for students aged 3-4 who qualify for special education services. We open up limited spots in each of the 3s and 4s classrooms for typical peers to participate, at no cost, except parents must provide transportation.

We will accept applications throughout the school year. We use the CT Early Learning Development Standards to identify those candidates who might serve as strong language, behavioral, and social skill models for disabled peers in the class.

To be considered for the program, your child must turn 3 or 4 by the first day of the new school year. All children will be screened throughout the school year at Mohegan School or Long Hill School at a mutually agreed time. Children will come into the building for a short screening.

Please contact the Office of Teaching and Learning at 203-924-1023, ext. 317 or ksedlock@sheltonpublicschools.org to apply.

Please do not come to the Central Offices without an appointment.
