Head Start has served children and families in Cleveland County for over 40 years. The program is administered by Cleveland County Schools and currently serves 244 children ages 3-5. There are 14 classrooms located in 11 elementary schools through the county. Children must meet certain criteria in order to qualify for Head Start services.
Who is Eligible?
Children who are 3 to 5 years old are eligible for Head Start services. Pregnant women and children from birth to 3 years of age are eligible for Early Head Start services. Children and families who are homeless, in foster care, or receive TANF or SSI are also eligible for services. Eligibility is determined by Head Start program staff and some families may be eligible for services if they are determined to be at or below the federal poverty level.
