About the Program:
Head Start gets your child ready for school
Children who receive an early childhood education are more likely to succeed in school That’s why Head Start gives kids, ages three to five, the learning and social skills they need to be ready to start school.
Head Start kids get ready for school in many ways, including:
Doing activities that help prepare them to learn, connect with other kids, understand their feelings, and control their behavior
Learning to read and understand numbers
Practicing being a good citizen, playing fair, and accepting others
Building physical development through safe play indoors and out
Taking part in planning daily activities
Establishing healthy eating habits and personal hygiene routines
Discovering that learning is fun!
We offer many ways to meet your child’s needs and your family’s schedule. All agencies provide half-day sessions, while some offer full-day, year-round programs. Some services are offered in a classroom, while others may be offered in your home. Or, you may also be able to choose a combination of classroom and home-based services.
