What is School Readiness?

School Readiness is a program that provides financial assistance for early learning, helping families access affordable, high-quality child care. It focuses on preparing children with the skills they need for school and future success, including social, emotional, and cognitive development.

Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten (VPK) is a free program for 4-year-olds in Florida that prepares them for kindergarten by focusing on key early learning skills. It builds a strong foundation for academic success and lifelong learning.

Child Care Resource and Referral (CCR&R) is a free service that helps families find affordable child care and early education programs. It also offers information about financial assistance and local resources to support parents.

The Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) is a reliable tool that helps parents and caregivers track their child’s developmental progress from birth to age 6. By answering simple questions about their child’s skills, parents can identify any potential delays early on. This allows them to seek appropriate support or interventions to ensure their child is on the right path to success. The ASQ covers both developmental and social-emotional areas and is easy to complete.
