Enrollment: EHS/HS/ECEAP

Accepting Applications NOW

The Early Head Start, Head Start and Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program (ECEAP) of Whitman County want to invite you to enroll your child in our local preschool program. Classes meet at sites throughout Whitman County with no charge to qualifying families. 

Early Head Start is a full day, full year program for pregnant moms thru three years olds. Children 3 - 5 years old will be able to attend preschool four days a week, three and a half hours a day (AM or PM sessions) and have fun while mastering preschool skills and preparing for kindergarten.

For Head Start and ECEAP, priority will be given to children who will turn three or four years old by August 31, 2011. However, children who turn three years old after this date will be considered. Most families must meet specific income guidelines in order to qualify for the program.

To begin the process of enrolling your child in Early Head Start, Head Start or ECEAP, you must complete the application form, and submit income and age proof with the application.  

The special consideration form is optional. It is used to identify additional factors, which might qualify your child for the program. Any information we are given is kept in strict confidence.

Thank you for your interest. If you have a friend who is interested in these programs or if you need help completing the application, please call 509-334-9290 or toll free at (877) 909-7005. We look forward to meeting your family!
