Preschool Details: Head Start’s core belief is that disadvantaged children and their families can be helped through participation in an early childhood program. Its mission is to empower children, parents and staff to lead happier, healthier, more productive lives by realizing the full, dynamic potential that lies within all persons. This is accomplished by creating an atmosphere that encourages respect, responsiveness and nurturing toward each other in a manner that unleashes and supports the inherent right to be a unique individual.
Eligible Requirements: Head Start is a federally funded program; therefore, we must follow strict guidelines for enrollment. Also, State Pre-K requires that at-risk children be served first. To meet these mandates, a point system was created. A child who has an identified disability, for example, will earn more points and therefore stand a better chance of being enrolled first. Ten percent of Head Start slots may be for over-income children; however, those slots are reserved for children with disabilities first. If there are none, then they will be filled, by the point system, with those over-income children with the greatest need.
Age Requirements: 3-5 years old
How to Apply: You will need the following: Tennessee immunization certificate; A copy of the birth certificate; A copy of your current tax return OR proof of family income for the past 12 months
