Our Head Start classroom is part of the local public school system, so over 90% of them come from low-income families. Exercise and proper nutrition is usually not a high priority for families living in poverty, so we try to stress fitness and healthy eating as much as possible while the children are at school. We have twenty children between the ages of three and five years that attend school five days a week. If not for the Head Start program, these children would enter the kindergarten with no early childhood education at all. We not only work with the children, but we also offer parent education classes as well. We want to make Head Start a positive experience for everyone.
