What You Need to Know

Head Start Performance Standards require that all programs serve the children and families most in need in the community. A specific process is used to find and enroll these children. Head Start also provides wrap around services covering health, medical, dental, mental health and more.

  • Participants discuss wrap around services provided to families to promote family self-sufficiency.

  • Toothbrushing and Family Style Meals are important components of a daily Head Start program. Embedding these activities daily can be challenging. Participants participate in planning time to ensure these quality activities are presented to children.

  • Eligibility, Recruitment, Selection, Enrollment & Attendance are critical tasks in a Head Start program. Understanding these tasks and the data collected during this process informs the work being done daily.
