Children in Washington that will be 4 years old on or before September 15th can attend free preschool for the third year in a row. YMCA Childcare Director Shalon Hoyle says the school district offers free preschool in 5 Washington locations, a program that is paid for by a state grant that was initially funded for just two years, but was recommended for renewal by that state. To sign a child up for free preschool or for more information, contact the Washington School District.
