Preschool Details: Red Springs Head Start Center is located in the historic Robeson County town of Red Springs. Services are provided to 100 enrollees and their parents in a five classroom setting. This center is one of our agency’s largest and was built through utilization of State Bond Funds and Health and Human Services expansion monies.
