VPK All Day (Title I Schools) & Wrap Services (Non-Title I Schools)

Leon County Schools offers full-day early learning opportunities for all VPK First students. The structure of the full-day experience depends on whether a child is enrolled at a Title I or Non-Title I school. 

 

VPK All Day (Title I Schools) 

At all Title I elementary schools, VPK students automatically receive a full day of instruction at no cost. 8:30am to 2:50pm. 

 

Full-day VPK at Title I schools includes: 

• Certified PK teachers 

• Play-based, language-rich instruction 

• Small-group learning 

• Outdoor play 

• Lunch and rest time 

• Extended learning through the afternoon 

 

Families enrolling in a Title I school do not pay for wrap services (unless you choice to a Title I school, but your home zone is a non Title I school).
