All Head Start classrooms are staffed with qualified teachers with degrees and/or certification in the field of early childhood education. At least two adults ensure the safety of the children at all times. Head Start provides classroom activities geared toward each child's level of development and allows parents to help plan child-centered lessons.

You can pick up an application; call to receive one by mail; download an application from our website; or complete one online. We welcome children of all abilities and collaborate with local school districts to implement plans for each child's specific needs. Yes, you should still apply! While we are considered an income based program, we are better described as a needs-based program.
The Board of Directors is composed of community volunteers representing different agencies. We are required to have representation from one or more members with a background and expertise in fiscal management and accounting, one or more members with a background and expertise in early childhood education and development, and one or more licensed attorneys familiar with Head Start governing body issues.

For a low income school they have been great to us. Love the teachers and the program. We will be in this program for awhile to come as we have one going in next year and after he finishes another will be old enough. Also they have good programs and the kids have a blast at the events. Keep up the good work!!!
