Early Learning Coalition of Pinellas to Host In-person Registration Events

May 11, 2022 by Post

The nonprofit hopes to give families in Pinellas County more options with their walk-in Voluntary Prekindergarten event.

In an effort to provide more access to parents, The Early Learning Coalition of Pinellas County (ELC Pinellas) plans to host in-person, walk-in Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) registration events throughout Pinellas County on May 18, and June 3 from 7:30 am-5:30 pm, and from 9 am-1 pm on June 25, 2022. The registration event will allow parents to register their children to participate in Florida’s Free VPK current or upcoming program year.

“We are passionate about helping families find the tools to support their child’s development. Children who attend Florida’s Free VPK are better prepared for success in kindergarten and beyond,” said Lindsay Carson, chief executive officer of ELC Pinellas.

VPK is a free program for 4-year-olds whose families reside in Florida. The program helps build a strong foundation for school using educational materials appropriate for different stages in your child’s development and preparing them for kindergarten and beyond. Families can decide where their child learns with hundreds of public, private, and faith-based schools and centers in Pinellas County.

Families interested in participating in our in-person VPK registration event must have the following items: E-mail Address, proof of Florida residency such as a Florida driver’s license or utility bill and/or current signed lease, and proof of child’s age including a birth certificate, passport, or current immunization record.
