Questions parents ask about Lake Lucina Elementary
Is Lake Lucina Elementary a licensed child care provider in Florida?
- No. The Florida Department of Children and Families lists Lake Lucina Elementary as "Exempt", which means it operates without a DCF child care licence rather than under one. Exempt providers remain on the DCF public record under record number E04DU0083, and Florida still requires background screening of their staff, but they are not licensed and are not inspected on the same schedule. Confirm current standing with DCF before enrolling.
Does Lake Lucina Elementary offer free VPK?
- Yes. Lake Lucina Elementary is on record with Florida DCF as a Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) provider, so eligible 4-year-olds can attend the state-funded program here at no cost. Confirm current VPK enrollment with the provider.
Does Lake Lucina Elementary accept School Readiness subsidies?
- Yes. The DCF record shows Lake Lucina Elementary participates in Florida's School Readiness program, so families approved for child care assistance through their local Early Learning Coalition may be able to use it here.
What are Lake Lucina Elementary's hours?
- Weekday hours listed on its Google business profile are 8 AM–6 PM. Listings change, so call ahead to confirm.
How many children can Lake Lucina Elementary care for?
- Lake Lucina Elementary is licensed for up to 336 children. Licensed capacity is a legal maximum, not current availability or enrollment.
Has Lake Lucina Elementary had any licensing violations?
- Florida DCF has recorded 3 inspections at Lake Lucina Elementary, 3 of which recorded at least one finding. Reports are published by the state and summarized as reported; a finding is a cited standard, not a judgment of overall quality.
