Reflections of Head Start Volunteers

As stated on the Head Start website: "Created in 1965, Head Start is the most successful, longest-running, national school readiness program in the United States. It provides comprehensive education, health, nutrition, and parent involvement services to low-income children and their families. Nearly 25 million pre-school aged children have benefited from Head Start."

Here is a video with Jake, Will, and Mitch talking about what they love about this organization.

HeadStart Interviews 1 & 2

Tyus and I visited HeadStart in Lowell on Friday with Mrs. Bev Rodrigues, to interview some students about what they have been doing in their Winterim and what their favorite experiences have been so far. The goal of this course is to provide an experience through which they can learn more about children in poverty and about early childhood education by working as teachers at HeadStart. Three and four-year-olds go to school every day there and each participant will work with a professional, an aide, and about twenty children in a classroom and on the playground, assisting a teaching team through the day.
