OUR PROGRAM

Carlisle Local School District offers a high-quality preschool program in accordance with federal mandates. Our program serves children ages 3 to 5 who qualify for special education services, as well as typically developing peers who attend through tuition enrollment.

We provide a nurturing, inclusive environment that fosters young children’s intellectual, academic, and social development. Our blended model is based on the belief that preschool-aged children with disabilities and their typically developing peers can learn and grow together. Each center-based classroom is thoughtfully structured to include an equal number of students from both groups, creating a dynamic and supportive learning community.
