Head Start
Preschool is filling spots for fall
Getting a child ready for kindergarten is important! But that
learning starts at birth and continues through preschool. If they
wait for kindergarten or primary school they will be missing the time
when their learning develops most quickly in their life.
Kids Learning Place is now taking applications and filling the limited
number of spots for the Head Start preschool classrooms in Darke County
for fall 2015. Head Start is a federal funded, high-quality
preschool program for children between three to five years old.
The program is no cost to the families that meet eligibility with
limited income, foster children, children who live with homeless
families or children who have a disability or special need.
We want to help your kids be ready for kindergarten! We are committed
to ensuring education excellence for the families and children.
Every child needs a variety of learning experiences before starting
school; we achieve this in Head Start preschool by providing a positive
education experience that includes:
• experienced teachers with degrees in every classroom
• half day preschool in classrooms or through home base visits
• safe and friendly environments where children are eager to learn
• teaching plans that match school readiness and how children learn and
develop
Our centers in Greenville, Bradford, and Union City are the ONLY child
care programs in Darke County that are recognized in Ohio’s “Step Up to
Quality” program with either a 3 or 4 star award for quality from the
Ohio Department of Job and Family Services.
