Sharing Web Resources: The National Head Start Association

The National Head Start Association is a great resource for early childhood educators, teachers and parents. The website offers an abundant amount of information about staff development, training, learning opportunities, blogs, parent radio. For this week, I took a look a the Keep the Window Open! tab. I don't know how I had missed this tab before but is GREAT. I got a chance to see what others had to share about their story about head start. On the tab there a link where you can see testimonials from every state. I am going to try to read some from every state, I have already started, it is just amazing how head start has touched the lives of so many and continue to do so. The association has goal of 27 million to tell their story about head start and how it has touched their  lives and changed them forever.


I am a member of the organization, and I receive the newsletter, the newsletter which shares the most recent information about upcoming training and advocacy opportunities and much more. The association is a great resource and that is why I am sharing it with others to share with their co-workers and parents.


As educators we must be able to have resources that can help better the lives of children and families and this is a great resource.

  1. Arthurine,

    I am a Head Start teacher and have never visited this site, so I will first say thanks for providing information from the National Head Start Association. The tab Keep the Window Open sounds like a great place to collaborate with other Head Start professionals and gather ways to improve and provide the best services to children and their families. Thanks for sharing.
