Prek Philosophy

The Head Start Program is based on the premise that all children share certain needs, and that children of low-income
families, in particular, can beneit from a comprehensive developmental program to meet those needs. The Head Start approach is based on the philosophy that a child can beneit most from a comprehensive, interdisciplinary program to foster
development and remedy problems as expressed in a broad range of services, and that the childs entire family, as well as
the community, must be involved.
The program should maximize the strengths and unique experiences of each child. The family, which is perceived as the
principal inluence in the childs development, must be a direct participant in the program. Local communities are allowed
latitude in developing creative program designs as long as the basic goals, objectives and standards of a comprehensive
program are followed.
