When a family enrolls in Head Start, we ensure frequent parent/staff communication through home visits, phone calls and parent/teacher conferences. Parents are encouraged to participate in the program in a variety of ways, from volunteering in the classroom or on field trips to serving on committees or attending workshops that are offered. For families and children whose primary language is not English, we have bicultural and bilingual teachers and interpreters available to help you access all components of the program. If your goal is to learn English, we can assist you in finding resources. We provide routine screenings to assess each child’s development, including health and nutrition status, and we meet with parents to identify and obtain any support or resources needed for their child and family. Our center also includes an age-appropriate outdoor playground and indoor play space for our children to run and play.
