School Readiness Scholarships
School Readiness (SR) programs serve disadvantaged families with children ages 0-12 years. SR provides tuition assistance for early learning and school-age care to support kindergarten readiness and academic success.
ELC staff will be working remotely until further notice. Appointments will be held over the phone; we encourage families have a computer or smartphone available for use on their end.
To schedule an appointment, call 727-400-4411.
