 What do I do to apply for Preschool?
You must fill out an application and your child must be accepted for the 
class.  You can get an application at any of the schools in Weakley County 
for their Preschool program.  In order to process your application, you must 
provide your child's certified birth certificate, Social Security number, and 
some form of verification of your income.  This can be your food stamp case 
number, a copy of your income tax return, or a copy of your paycheck stub.
