Lincoln Circle Head Start in Hendersonville, NC

Preschool Description

Head Start and Early Head Start provides services in Transylvania and Henderson Counties for 335 children from the ages of birth to five years old. Enrollees are served in eight different centers in Henderson County and two centers in Brevard.
Five of the centers utilize Wrap-Around services which lengthen the classroom day and months of the year if needed, to provide child care for parents of children who are working or in job related training. Parents pay for Wrap-Around fees on a sliding scale basis. There is, however, no charge for participation in Head Start or Early Head Start.
Head Start children in both center and home-base programs receive comprehensive services of education, social service, parent involvement, nutrition and health. Parents are involved in all facets of the program.
The 80% federal funds allocated to operate Head Start programs must be matched by 20% non-federal resources. The non-federal match is typically provided by services of volunteers and donations from individuals, churches and civic groups, etc.
The WCCA Board of Directors and the Head Start Policy Council share decision-making about various aspects of the Head Start program to include approval of: 1) procedures for program planning and the annual funding applications, 2) short-term and long-term program goals, and 3) procedures for resolution of community concerns.
