School starts next week for many Utah kids, and many school districts are still scrambling to figure out the best way to educate children while keeping everyone safe.

For families with kids in Pre-K, the thought of attending preschool with a large class can be daunting. But there is another option to get them prepared for Kindergarten right from the comfort of your own home. And the best part - it's free!
