The 2015-16 School Public Accountability Reports (SPAR) have been posted on the Florida Department of Education’s website:  http://doeweb-prd.doe.state.fl.us/eds/nclbspar/index.cfm

The SPAR contains data that provides parents and community members information about the progress of each school.  Due to the length of the report we are unable to send copies home with each student.  However if you would like a copy,  the reports will be made available at the front desk of each school.

Florida Kid Care Insurance

December 19, 2017

Your child and their siblings could be one of 147,000 children eligible for completely free or low-cost health and dental insurance through Florida KidCare – even if one or both parents are working. Florida KidCare includes free, subsidized and full-pay options based on family income. Most families pay nothing at all for coverage, and many pay just $15 or $20 a month. Families who do not qualify for free or subsidized coverage may purchase a competitively priced full-pay plan.

With NO application fee and year-round open enrollment, the time to apply is always now. Your family’s information is never shared outside of Florida KidCare.

Apply at iamkidcare.org/school, or give them a call at 1-888-540-KIDS (5437).
