Head Start provides a free, early intervention program to low-income, at-risk children, 3 – 5 years of age and their families. Each child receives a developmental, hearing, vision, and health screening. Our program provides activities that address the child’s cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development to help prepare the child for success in school and in life. Two different Head Start preschool options are available. Children in the center-based program attend school 4 days per week for 4 hours. Children in our full day program attend school 5 days a week for 6 ½ hours. To be eligible for the full day program, families must be working or enrolled in school.
Discovery Preschool provides free preschool services for children who are three, four, or five years old as of the school age cutoff date (September 15th). Each child receives a developmental, hearing, vision, and health screening. Our program provides activities that address the child’s cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development to help prepare the child for success in school and in life. Classes are for 3 hours a day four mornings a week.
We recognize parents as a child’s first and most important teacher. By partnering with parents we can help prepare children for success in school and in life. Parents are always welcome and encouraged to participate in classroom and other center activities.
