Enrollment

To be eligible for admission, Pre-Kindergarten applicants must be 4-years-old on or before September 1, 2023, and Kindergarten applicants must be 5-years-old. All accepted scholars must provide valid documentation to include proof of birth age, Florida certification of immunization or exemption, proof of physical examination by a Florida-licensed health professional, proof of residency, and meet the following school registration requirements under Florida Law.

Pre-Kindergarten classes at Tiger Academy include the 3-hour state-provided Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten session at no cost to our parents, with additional developmental and academic activities available for the remainder of the day for a fee, which may be covered in several ways based on each family’s needs. Our full Pre-K school day is from 8:00am until 3:30pm, however, those times may be adjusted based on each child’s need(s). The goal of Pre-K is to prepare children to enter Kindergarten well-prepared, ready to learn and achieve their highest potential.

According to controlled school choice option, out-of-county students may apply to Tiger Academy. If there is an applicant outside the Duval County, the applicant will follow the same timeline to apply. If the school still has any opening after giving priority to Duval County applicants, and waiting list students are called, remaining spots will be available to out of Duval County applicants in the order they applied in each grade level.

Re-Enrollment Process for Current Students

The current students will be re-enrolled automatically.  Parents will be asked to complete a survey if they know their scholar will not be returning the following year.

Enrollment Process for New Students

New applications are accepted for the succeeding school year from February 1st until February 28th of the preceding school year. All registrants must complete an enrollment application.  Preferences for siblings and staff are acknowledged.

The lottery will take place in March of the preceding school year, in the presence of a parent and a minimum of three school officials. Registrants will receive lottery results via email and/or text, immediately after the lottery is conducted. Students who do not receive a seat will receive wait-list status information and if a seat becomes available during the school year—parents are notified of the available seat.
