The new Superior Head Start Preschool program year has officially begun. On Tuesday, Sept. 6, the children arrived with parents and their backpacks, ready to experience the Head Start classroom.
The PGCCS Head Start Program provides an early childhood learning environment that focuses on school readiness. The Head Start school readiness experiences enables children to learn how to use materials, learn class and daily routines, and develop social skills which enables them to become familiar and comfortable with teaching staff and peers. The play based learning provides health and safety, literacy, language, math and science activities in both small and large group settings.
September will be a busy month for the children as they are introduced to new friends with a school family concept while embracing the conscious discipline and the creative curriculum.
The children will participate in their first walking field trip “around the block” on Sept. 28, which will coincide with their first “Fatherhood Activity.”
The Superior Head Start Program encourages community members to volunteer. Staff members this program year include Hilda Cardenas, Site Manager, Teresita Martinez-Olmos Teacher-PIC and Irene Navarro, Teacher Assistant.
