Details
All children need individualized, developmentally appropriate stimulation at every stage of growth if they are to have a chance of achieving their full educational potential. Children who fall significantly behind in language, and cognitive ability in early childhood are likely to remain behind for the rest of their lives. The main goal of the education unit of the L.B.J. & C. Head Start Program is to provide a child development program that will help children gain the social competence, developmental skills, and confidence necessary to be prepared to succeed in their present environment and with later responsibilities in school and life.
