Hello! I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good preschool that has the VPK program? My son is in a preschool now, but our finances are strained and we are hoping to be able to send him for free next year. If anyone has any suggestions it would be appreciated! We live in Sarasota. Thanks!

What can I do next?

Sprouts (at Harvest United Methodist Church) is starting VPK for the 2009 school year. My son attended this year (and I wish they had VPK)...but it was such a WONDERFUL preschool, I was happy to pay the tuition. It's in LWR, so it may be a little drive for you...but it's right off the University exit. I can't say enough positives about this school...and now to have it for free? There may be a waiting list. Good luck! C.

I am not sure were in Sarasota you live but I live in LWR and my daugher will be in the VPK program 09-10 school year @ Wakeland Elementary School of International Studies which is actually in Bradenton by the Pirates baseball training field!It is an IB school and their VPK program is free- think the hours are from 8:30-12:30 and for an extra $12/day you can extend it thru regular school hours. I have been doing a lot of research on schools (not daycares) and this is the one that I have heard the best reviews about. Check out their website @ http://www.manatee.k12.fl.us/sites/elementary/wakeland/.

Good luck!!!

Rainbow Station on Wilkinson in Sarasota. My children have attended for over 2 years and we love it. Friendly, caring staff. Free summer VPK!

My son is attending St. Paul ECLC on Bahia Vista. He is in the 3-4 year old class now and is registered for PreK for next year. The VPK program is from 9-1 there and is free. There is aftercare available from 1-5:30 and 'breakfast club' from 8-9. Not sure about exact costs.
It's a wonderful and very small environment. My son loves it, learns, thrives, etc. Our family is extremely pleased.
