Head Start to Register in April
Garden City’s Head Start registration will be April 25 – 27 for children who are four years of age by Sept. 1, 2005. Applications will be taken at the Head Start parent room/office from 10 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. Parents should bring proof of income, the child’s birth certificate, immunization record, social security cards (for all members of the household) and documentation of Medicaid or other health insurance, if any.
Head Start is primarily a program for four-year-olds. However, if enrollment is low, some three-year-olds may be included. Applications for both three and four-year-olds will be taken at this time, and three-year-olds will be put on a waiting list. Applications for both ages are needed to help in planning the program for the coming year. For more information, call Delia Pierson at 354-2413.
Children are accepted based on the Head Start point system. Enrollment is not denied on the basis of a child’s disability.
