Head Start programs are provided at no cost to eligible families. They provide high-quality pre-kindergarten education for children who are 3 years old until they enter kindergarten.
Head Start, delivered in Norwalk by the Family & Children’s Agency, is a program of the United States Department of Health and Human Services that provides comprehensive early childhood education, health, nutrition, and parent involvement services to low-income children and families. It is the oldest and largest program of its kind.[1] The program’s services and resources are designed to foster stable family relationships, enhance children’s physical and emotional well-being, and establish an environment to develop strong cognitive skills. The transition from preschool to elementary school imposes diverse developmental challenges that include requiring the children to engage successfully with their peers outside the family network, adjust to the space of a classroom, and meet the expectations the school setting provides.[2]
Membership Committee co-chair Lauren Traum will induct new members Sam Nestor and Theresa Brasco at this Saturday's meeting. Please join the celebration of these new Kiwanians.
