CFS Head Start Mission Statement

 

~CFS Head Start is dedicated to promoting opportunities for our children, families, volunteers and employees to reflect, learn and grow in a caring environment.  Together we will strengthen our community

 

I tried to teach my child with books
he gave me only puzzled looks.
I tried to teach my child with words
they passed by him unheard.
In despair I turned aside
How will I teach my child, I cried.
Into my hand he put the key.
"Come," he said, "and play with me.”
