Extended Day

At Nantucket Lighthouse School, we imaginatively engage the whole child - head, heart, and hands - in the creative and challenging act of learning. The Nantucket Lighthouse School Extended Day program not only extends the school’s ability to provide quality programming but also extends the philosophy and creative approach of Nantucket Lighthouse School.

  • Small, multi-age groups provide intimate and trusting settings and enable instructors to work and spend time with individual children.
  • The social curriculum of Nantucket Lighthouse School is actively utilized to teach valuable lessons in empathy, cooperation, and conflict resolution.
  • The warm and inviting Nantucket Lighthouse School classrooms provide children with a comfortable and supportive environment and a lively extension of home. Older and younger children have opportunities to work and play together.
  • The Extended Day program is structured to include hands-on activities, artistic projects, and imaginative play indoors and out. Older children will also have built-in time to focus on homework with the support of the instructor.
