Head Start knows how important it is for children to be healthy. Being healthy enables children to reach their full potential. Healthy habits are established in the classroom with daily tooth brushing and emphasis on hand washing and health education activities. Family style meals along with skills involved are practiced on a daily basis. Infants are held while being bottle fed according to their own schedules. Formula is provided by the Center.
Head Start is committed to supporting your family. We will help you identify your goals and support you in reaching them by using your family strengths and community resources. This will reinforce the gains made by your child in Head Start.
S'Klallam Culture is enmeshed throughout the Early Childhood Education Program, all classrooms have drums and sing with the Children. We have S'Klallam words phrases used throughout the center. Children all come together every other week in the S'Klallam Longhouse to sing and dance together. All parents are encouraged to join us.
The Early Childhood Program also recognizes the importance of all cultures represented. If your child is not S'Klallam and you would like to share your culture, we encourage you to talk with the Family Service Manager to see how we can support the sharing of your culture.
