Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) Programs
Florida created the free Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) program for all 4-year-olds, regardless of family income. VPK prepares early learners for success in kindergarten and beyond. The District offers both the school year (part day) and summer (full day) VPK programs in most, but not all elementary schools. Parents can choose to have their child attend one, but not both VPK programs.
To participate, children must turn 4 years old by September 1 of the year prior to kindergarten entry, be residents of Palm Beach County, and have a VPK Certificate of Eligibility. However, the state allows parents with children who turn 4 between February 2 and September 1 to postpone enrollment until the following year.
