Congressman Adrian Smith visited our Hastings Head Start location yesterday. He spent some time in the classroom visiting with and reading to the children, as well as visiting with the Administration Team about our program and important issues children and families face across the State. Thank you Representative Smith for allowing us the opportunity to share the benefits of Head Start and early childhood.



Our families had some amazing things to say about our program. Thank you all so much for your support and choosing us to give your child a Head Start!
