This program has been recently recognized by the Governor of Florida as one of the outstanding programs in the state. Each elementary school has at least one class which offers eligible children an opportunity to participate in experiences designed to foster growth in language development, social skills, motor development, music, creativity and other important skills for the future academic success. To be eligible, the State of Florida requires the child to be four years old on or before Sept. 1. Students who qualify for full-time exceptional education services in an inclusion setting may also attend prekindergarten. The Extended Day Enrichment Program operates in most elementary schools.
Some schools offer both before and after school activities.
This program is an extension of the regular school day and provides safe supervision for children. Students enroll in the program at the schools they attend. In addition to operating during regular school days, the program also serves children during the summer. For more information about the Extended Day Enrichment Program, click here .
