Preschool Integrated Program Information

Preschool Integrated Program Information for 2022-2023 Millburn Township Public Schools is pleased to announce the annual opening of applications for its Integrated Preschool Program. The Millburn Integrated Preschool program has been a valuable service to the community since September 1993. The Millburn Township Public Schools’ Preschool Integrated Program will be located at the South Mountain Elementary School, 2 Southern Slope Drive, Millburn. The unique program consists of children with special needs as well as typically developing preschool children from the township. A general Preschool Curriculum is followed for all students.

All preschool sessions are two and one-half hour classes, Monday through Friday. The three year old program runs for 2 ½ hours in the morning from 8:30am to 11:00am. The four year old program runs for 2 ½ hours in the afternoon from 12:30pm to 3:00pm. The cost of tuition is $425 per month (2022-2023 school year). Regular education students must submit an application to be eligible for the Lottery. Applicants must be three years of age on or before October 1, 2022, and fully toilet trained for the start of school in September. There are approximately 16 openings at the three year old level. The four year old program is automatically populated with returning students from the previous three year old class.

Applications for four year old students will be accepted solely for placement on a wait list. If an opening becomes available due to a student leaving the program, the wait list is utilized. Applications will be available at the Millburn Education Center, 434 Millburn Avenue, Millburn, between 8:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., from January 3 to February 2, 2022, or on the Millburn School District’s website at www.millburn.org. The deadline for applications is Wednesday, February 2, 2022. If you access the application online, please send the completed form to specialservicesdept@millburn.org. The lottery drawing will be held Friday, February 4, 2022, at 11:00 a.m. at the Education Center’s Board Room. Lottery winners will be notified by email. All three year old applicants not selected through the Lottery will be placed on a wait list. Applications are accepted all year and those students are placed on a wait list.

If selected to participate in the program through the lottery, proof of residency in the township and an original birth certificate must be provided in order to be admitted along with a $425 deposit check made out to the Millburn Board of Education which will be applied to the June of 2023 tuition, as well as a signed Preschool Tuition Contract. Selected students must complete residency & registration paperwork and the deposit must be received by April 1, 2022 or we will move on to the next student on the waiting list.
