Holy Cross Head Start, Inc. is one of the many Head Start preschool programs serving children 3 and 4 years old and their families throughout the country. We promote school readiness by enhancing the social and cognitive development of children through the provision of education, health, nutritional, social and other services to enrolled children and families.  
Education
Since children learn best through active involvement, Holy Cross Head Start provides an enriched, stimulating, and safe environment that encourages exploration and experimentation. Children are guided to question, hypothesize, problem solve, and express themselves creatively. Teachers at Holy Cross respect and understand the uniqueness of each and every child.
Health
Holy Cross knows the importance in encouraging and promoting healthy habits at a young age. Our curriculum includes programs that educate the entire family on how to be an advocate for their child's health, while encouraging good oral health and healthy eating. Every child must have an annual physical exam to attend Head Start.
Nutrition
We pride ourselves in working closely with our families to prevent childhood obesity by educating them in the importance of choosing healthy meal options and limiting fatty, sugary foods. Children who attend Head Start receive 1/3 to 1/2 of their daily nutritional needs. Meals are served family style, and parents are welcome to join their child for a meal anytime.
Family Involvement
Holy Cross provides linkages with family support services, which helps families develop and reach their goals. Our staff can provide referrals for resources such as food, clothing, shelter, counseling, emergency assistance, and more. Holy Cross Head Start provides workshops and job readiness support, outreach and advocacy. Parent involvement is strongly encouraged within our program. We welcome parents and families to volunteer in our program at any time, and regularly hold fun and educational events for our children and th
