Welcome to A. Ward Spaulding School!

Our school is established as Suffield’s early childhood center where approximately 480 students are enrolled in engaging learning experiences in grades Prek through Grade Two.  We support an integrated preschool program that is designed for preschoolers with identified special needs and includes area preschoolers as peer role models. Our half-day Kindergarten, as well as our First and Second grades, have classes that are heterogeneously grouped and support full inclusion.
