Summer VPK
Summer Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK)
If you live in Florida and your child turned 4 years old on or before September 1, your child is eligible for the VPK program. Some 5-year olds are also eligible, depending on their birth date. Parents can choose one of the following program options.
School Year Program – 540 instructional hours.
Summer Program – 300 instructional hours.
If your child attended a school year VPK program, he/she is NOT eligible for the summer VPK program unless extreme hardship applies.
Enrollment Requirements:
- Parents must complete a VPK application online by clicking on the Florida VPK link here, or on the home page on this website — or at your nearest ELC Office.
- Upload or bring the child’s original birth certificate, passport, or immunization record signed by a physician and
- Upload or bring Proof of Florida Residency (e.g. electric bill, lease, driver’s license, or pay stub with address)
