Tiger Cub Preschool

Tiger Cub Preschool

Tiger Cub Preschool is part of the Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program (ECEAP), Washington's pre-kindergarten program that prepares 3- and 4-year-old children from families furthest from opportunity for success in school and life. The Department of Children, Youth and Families oversees the program. 

Our preschool students receive:

  • Increased social-emotional, physical and pre-academic skills.
  • Health screenings so each child can fully focus on learning.
  • Family guidance that helps with self-sufficiency and building their children's success. 
  • Tiger Cub Preschool is available to children in the Ephrata School District area that are 3 or 4-years-old by August 31 and who are from families from low annual income or who have developmental or environmental risk factors that could affect school success. 

Two young children lie on the floor, surrounded by colorful educational toys.
