Details
Our goal is to use research-based, intentional techniques to insure children’s success in kindergarten and in life. Our classrooms offer a culturally sensitive environment that meets the individual needs and interests of each child. Educational experiences are integrated within the day, including meal times and outdoor time. Children participate in hands-on activities designed for their skill level, insuring each child experiences success and develops a love for learning.
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. Some
grantees enroll a percentage of children from families with incomes above the Poverty Guidelines
as well.
Families are encouraged to apply.
