Seattle Speaks: Universal Pre-K, Seattle Channel
When: Wednesday, September 24, 2014, 6:30pm-8:30pm
Where: Town Hall Seattle, 1119 8th Ave. Seattle
What: Only 3 out of 10 children (ages 3-4) were enrolled in Washington preschool programs last year, but a publicly-funded universal pre-k measure is on the November ballot. What would universal pre-k look like in Seattle, and how should it be funded? Join Seattle CityClub, Seattle Channel and Town Hall for a live, interactive conversation about this proposed project.
Discuss potential costs of the measure, and long-term impacts on family access, educators, and equitable pay for childcare workers.
