Success
Story
My son highly benefited
from the services at Head
Start! He recently made a
perfect score on his 5th
grade Math assessment. He
is also the youngest firstranked Boy Scout in
Alamance County. Out of
three hundred boy scouts he
was picked to go to West
Point to participate in a
rigorous training. I am so
proud of him, and Head
Start is to thank. They
prepared him at a young
age for future success. Ms. B, Head Start Parent
