Description
The Head Start program provides economically disadvantaged children the opportunity to begin school with the same experiences and learned skills as other children by providing comprehensive services to children aged three- to five-years old and their families. Services include: preschool, special education, mental health services, medical treatment, nutritional services, parenting education and more.
Each year, over 450 economically disadvantaged children in Chester County participate in Head Start. Currently, the CCIU operates nine Head Start centers throughout the county. They are located in Coatesville (3), West Chester, Kennett Square, Phoenixville, Oxford (2) and Downingtown.
Active parental involvement is required. Head Start classes are held in half-day sessions (mornings and afternoons), Monday through Thursday. Head Start is a federally- and community-funded program. For more information, please contact the Head Start program supervisor at (610) 383-6800.
