Welcome to the Butler Extended Day Program

The Butler Extended Day Program is a school age before and after school program serving students in kindergarten through grade 4 at the Daniel Butler elementary school in Belmont, Massachusetts.  The program is licensed by the Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care. 

Families may register their children for 2 (TTh), 3 (MWF) or 5 days per week, subject to availability of your desired option for the after school program.  For the upcoming school year, the only option available for morning care is 5 days a week.  If we are able to offer part time options at a later time, we will post the information here.  Tuition is charged for both programs.

Visits are always welcome.  Please call or email, if you have any questions or would like to visit.

Due to current COVID restrictions at the Butler School, we regret that we cannot have visitors inside the school building at this time.  We can have visitors outdoors on our playground and outdoor classroom areas.

Request an application for the 2022-23 school year by going to the forms page or click here.

Butler Extended Day Program offers the following programs:

Early Morning Care:   7:15 - 8:30 a.m.

After School Care: Close of school - 6:00 p.m.

We will be opening registration to incoming kindergartners, siblings of incoming kindergartners and currently enrolled BEDP children in grades K-3 on May 9th.  Familes who are currently enrolled in BEDP will receive a form to pre-register for next year through their Brightwheel accounts.  Familes who are new to BEDP will be able to access a pre-registration form on the forms page of this website, using a link.  New families will need to set up a Brightwheel account in order to complete the form and will be invited to join the application process once they are in Brightwheel.

BEDP families with children in kindergarten through grade 3:

We shared a re-enrollment questionnaire with you on Brightwheel on Monday, April 25.   Please complete and return one for each child in kindergarten through grade 3 that you have enrolled in BEDP (before or after school).  We need to know your plans for next year so that we can get you the right application.  We will be opening enrollment for you on Monday, May 9.
