Mental Wellness is an integral component to good health. Head Start recognizes the importance of mental wellness and therefore provides mental health and psychological support to children and families in order to encourage social and emotional development. Discuss the individual needs of children with parents and staff. Inform parents and staff of current community mental health services and resources. Nutrition Opportunities are provided for children, parents, and staff to learn about proper nutrition.
Meals are a time for learning, for socializing, and for practicing good food habits.
Discover how produce is grown, how livestock is raised, how fish are caught and how baked goods are made. Your child may be entering school for the first time. Your family doctor or your child's pediatrician should perform a physical examination, including a hearing and vision test. We require a written note from your doctor if your child must take medicine or treatments, or if your child has allergic reactions.
