WHOLE FAMILY
Head Start is committed to providing comprehensive early childhood services to economically and educationally disadvantaged preschoolers and their families on the Fort Peck Reservation. Through a team approach, the program works to bring about a greater degree of social competence in children.
Head Start recognizes parents as the primary teachers and should therefore be made active in their child's education. Collaborative agreements with local agencies allow services to be coordinated effectively and on a timely basis.

Head Start is a free, developmentally appropriate early education and socialization program for income eligible children and their families' age 3 to 5 years old.
Fort Peck Tribes Head Start program seeks to offer a safe and culturally enriched environment for children. Children will have opportunities to attain adequate educational and social development. Children are encouraged to study and explore topics that interest them at their own pace.
We work with families to decrease stress and build critical parenting and life skills so that they can offer their children a safe, loving environment and inner strengths to help them attain their full developmental potential.
The program follows the Head Start Proformance Standards that can be found on Head Start ECLKC website.
