School Readiness

The Early Learning Coalition of Seminole provides low income families with scholarships to help offset the cost of early education and care. Each child care provider who participates in this program has agreed to exacting standards. Our goal is to make sure that quality early education and child care is available to all children ages birth to five, regardless of income. The Coalition works to ensure that every child enters kindergarten ready and eager to learn.
