Bay District Schools VPK registration for the 2026–2027 school year opens Monday, February 23, 2026 at 7:30 a.m.

Families can prepare now by obtaining a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) through the Early Learning Coalition of Northwest Florida. Completing this step ahead of time helps ensure a smooth registration day!
