Why Choose SCF Summer Enrichment?
At State College of Florida, we inspire kids to think big, stay curious, and build skills they can use for life. Our summer programs are designed to foster creativity, collaboration, and confidence in a fun, supportive, and engaging environment. Each week introduces new challenges and hands-on experiences that encourage learning, growth, and lasting memories.

Our programs are led by qualified, carefully selected staff with an education background, with curriculum thoughtfully curated and overseen by a former school principal to ensure high-quality instruction, strong student engagement, and a positive culture.

Student safety and well-being are our top priorities. SCF Public Safety Officers are on site during program hours, and our staff actively monitor student behavior to maintain a safe and inclusive learning environment. While we make every reasonable effort to support individual needs and accommodate students when possible, behavior that significantly disrupts the learning or safety of others cannot be accommodated. Additional details regarding behavior expectations, supervision, and procedures are outlined in our required release and policy forms.

Join us for a summer of discovery, creativity, and innovation, where learning is always an adventure.

Upon Registration & What to Expect
Upon registration, you will automatically receive our required release form. This form must be completed before your child may participate on campus without parent or guardian supervision, so we ask that you complete it promptly to avoid delays on the first day of class. Only one release form is needed per child, even if they are enrolled in multiple weeks or programs.

If you experience any issues completing the form electronically or need a paper copy, please contact us at youthenrichment@scf.edu and we will be happy to email one to you. Completed paper forms may be scanned and returned in advance by emailing it to YouthEnrichment@SCF.edu, or you may notify us ahead of time if you plan to bring a hard copy on the first day.

Safety is a top priority at SCF, and completing forms in advance helps our staff ensure a smooth and efficient check-in, especially during busy first-day mornings.

An email with detailed logistics and expectations will be sent by Thursday of the week prior to the class start date. Students should bring a water bottle and lunch each day. Snacks are included.
