Serving children aged 3 to 5 years, the academy prioritizes the individual needs of each child, fostering an environment where every student can thrive as a creative leader and original thinker. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to be consistent across the network while remaining adaptable to the unique needs of local communities. This approach ensures that children from low-income families receive high-quality education that nurtures their potential and encourages lifelong learning. With a strong emphasis on diversity and community engagement, Bezos Academy sets itself apart through its commitment to inclusive education and its innovative strategies for scaling early childhood opportunities, ultimately lighting the way for future generations.

Bezos Academy Kissimmee - Poinciana is an eight-classroom, Montessori-inspired preschool located at Deerwood Elementary School, opened in partnership with the Osceola School District. We serve children who are 3 or 4 years old by September 1, from families earning up to 400% of the federal poverty level, and there is no cost to attend, including no co-payment for families who receive child care subsidies. Our building has room for 160 children. School runs on weekdays from 7:50 a.m. to 3:45 p.m., and we enroll full-time only. Children eat breakfast and lunch with us and get an afternoon snack. Classrooms hold up to 20 children with at least one adult for every 10, each room has a full set of Montessori materials, and our state-licensed teachers are trained in the Montessori method. Children work in practical life, language, math, sensorial, science and social studies, and creative expression, and they spend time every day in our outdoor environment. Admission is by lottery. Florida families already receiving School Readiness or VPK benefits who apply before the lottery may receive preference.
