Pre-K / VPK Program

The Village Early Learning Center has been a leader in Florida’s Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten initiative since the Florida VPK program was implemented in 2002. At The Village ELC, PreK students acquire a strong foundation of skills on which they build their future academic success. Building upon the basics, students are consistently presented with new opportunities and challenges that encourage social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development and ensure that they are well-equipped for success when they enter kindergarten. Village PreK students learn from credentialed teachers in a spacious and engaging environment. Beyond the classroom, students expand their creativity and hone their problem-solving skills as they enjoy generous outdoor play areas, learn from a professional art teacher in an outdoor art studio, and develop a love for nature in garden classrooms. Enrichment activities, such as soccer and computer coding classes are available to students that attend our half and full-day prekindergarten / VPK programs.

Early Preschool

Our Early Preschool teachers partner with you to help your child learn important independent life skills like potty training and hand washing while paying close attention to all aspects of your child’s development.
