I've worked at daycares and as a LPISD substitute teacher and some of the things my grandson would be learning from Headstart would astound me. I'm so proud of him for enjoying to learn and every morning when he wakes to be so excited to go. I thank Headstart for having such a positive affect in our babies helping them achieve a lil jump start into their futures.

2 of my boys attend Headstart now and they have learned numerous of things I would hate for this program to be unavailable for my soon to be 2 year old daughter in the future.

This program has helped my son catch up academically so fast in a short amount of time. I'm grateful for it & would love to see it help other families.

My granddaughter attended a Head start program and when she started regular public school she was advanced and ajusted very well . Some parents need this program because it helps to help them teach their kids and encourages them to more involved in their children's activities.

As a kid my siblings and I was apart of head start. It was a safe and great learning experience which gave my mother a chance to be able to get a job. It was very helpful to us.

Please do not take away this help for low income families. Education is the passport for the future of these kids, and for a better tomorrow for our society as a whole. My mother struggled when my baby sister was born. While she worked a full time job to support the home, head start enabled her to keep her job while they provided my baby sister with pre-k education when she most needed it. My baby sister is now a junior in highschool, AP student top of her class. If it weren't for head start and the help they provided with her early education my mother would have struggled to make ends meet and would have not been able to provide her the proper education prior to kindergarten. Many kids fall behind because they are not prepared for kindergarten. Please dont take away this help for low income families, and I hope this helps with the realization of how it makes a difference in children's lives and their families.

Please keep the Head Start Program at HCDE. Too many children and families will suffer without it.

As a former employee of Head Start, these services are vital to at risk communities. An early investment in this population yields optimal results in school readiness.
