Head Start knows that children love to learn as they play and we work hard to help them develop socially, emotionally, physically, and academically. Head Start is a safe and caring place for children to learn and grow. As the parent, you are your child’s first and most important teacher, and we want to partner with you as your child learns and grows with us.
