Currently a  3-star accredited Head Start and Early Head Start program, reflecting our commitment to excellence and high-quality early childhood education.

We provide services starting as early as 6 months up to 5 years of age. Our program is entirely free for eligible families and includes comprehensive services such as:

• Early learning and development, promoting school readiness and cognitive, social, and emotional growth.
• Health services, including medical, dental, vision, hearing, and behavioral screenings.
• Nutritional support with free breakfast, lunch, and healthy snacks.

• Disability services, tailored to meet the individual needs of each child.
• Mental health services, supporting children's mental health and helping families understand and address their child's mental health needs.

Our belief is that students success is based on parents/guardians who are engaged with their children’s education as their child’s primary educators.
