October Head Start News

It’s October and school is in full swing! In August our teachers traveled to Fairbanks for a week-long pre-service training. The week was spent working on our skills and knowledge to bring your children and families the best education and environment we can.

September has been busy getting our kids into the swing of attending school and establishing their routines, as well as working with families to establish their family goals and ensuring that their needs are met.

There are still spots available in the classrooms! If you have a child under the age of 4 that you’d like to enroll please contact Waverly Neal at 907-452-8251 or 800-478-6822 ext. 3998 for more information.

Reading together is a wonderful way to build a lifelong love for reading with children and promote family time.
