Who We Are

Washington County Head Start is committed to fostering early childhood development and lifelong learning in a nurturing, inclusive, and supportive environment.

Our mission is to empower children and families by addressing their unique needs, promoting creativity, and building skills that prepare children for success in school and life. Through comprehensive education, health, and family support services, we aim to inspire confidence, independence, and a love of learning in every child we serve.

Our Philosophy

We believe every child deserves the opportunity to grow socially, emotionally, and physically in a nurturing, inclusive environment. Through play-based learning and individualized support, children develop essential skills in communication, cooperation, and problem-solving while fostering creativity and independence.
