Supporting Families through Early Childhood Services
Arrowhead Head Start prepares young children to succeed in school and in life beyond school. To achieve this, Head Start programs deliver services to children and families in core areas of early learning, health, and family well-being while engaging parents as partners every step of the way. Arrowhead Head Start programming encompasses Head Start Preschool programs, which serves 3- and 4-year-old children, and Early Head Start programming for infants, toddlers, and pregnant women. Both classroom and home-based services are available.
Our services go beyond early childhood education, offering support in health, nutrition, mental health, disabilities, and family well-being. While our program follows income guidelines, limited opportunities are available for families above the income threshold.
