EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A lack of classroom space prevented the District from offering VPK during the regular school year. According to legislation, school districts that were not able to provide the 540 instructional hour program during the regular year must offer a 300-hour program during the summer. Through a collaborative effort with the Early Learning Coalition of Hillsborough County, the Agency for Workforce Innovation, and the District, a VPK summer program has been designed to accommodate 6,000 students at approximately 50 sites between June 1, 2006, and July 14, 2006.
