Head Start Information

Sweetwater County School District #1 Head Start is a comprehensive preschool program designed to help low-income and at-risk 3 and 4 year old children and their families. At Head Start we recognize the vital role parents play in giving their children opportunities to learn. We work in partnership with parents to support their child's development at home and at school. We support children as they transition into Kindergarten and support families in becoming advocates for their child's education for years to come.
