Register your child for VPK today!
What is VPK? It is a free educational program provided by the state for 4-year-olds. Studies demonstrate that children who complete VPK or attend even a portion of VPK are far more prepared to succeed in kindergarten and beyond.
Who is eligible? Children who are 4 and live in Florida. Children born between February 2 and September 1 may wait until the following year to enroll when they are 5.
When are applications accepted? Parents can submit an application at any time during the year, but open enrollment for the 2021-22 VPK program is currently under way.
When is VPK offered? Children can attend a VPK school year program or a summer VPK program. Parents of 4-year-olds with special needs have an option outside the classroom setting through the VPK Specialized Instructional Services (VPK-SIS).
Don’t worry, it’s simple to apply. All you need is a valid email account, proof of your child’s age, and proof of residency. Visit the OEL Family Portal, https://familyservices.floridaearlylearning.com/ to apply today!
Like the Brain Bag, and constantly engaging in conversations with your child; VPK is another important tool in preparing your child for kindergarten. If you have any questions, please visit http://www.floridaearlylearning.com/coalitions
