The Yankton School Board acted at their meeting Monday night to add another teacher for the pre-school program.

Webster School Principal Melanie Ryken says they are seeing growing numbers…..

The school board decided to offer free preschool at the start of this year. Ryken says they are now seeing the results….

Ryken says they will now be able to help more kids at a younger age…..

The school district pays all the costs for preschool, as the state does not offer any funding for those programs.
