Experienced, highly-qualified teaching teams implement Head Start philosophies in a developmentally appropriate curriculum that supports school readiness by developing language, literacy, math, social-emotional, physical, and other skills necessary for successful learners. A safe and supportive learning environment, and collaborative work with parents and families, promotes knowledge, interaction, and creativity.
Priority is given to families who qualify for state or federal subsidy programs with limited slots available for over-income families.
