About this PreSchool

Location: Saratoga County NY

Head Start and Early Head Start are FREE federally funded programs for low-income pregnant women and children birth to age 5. Saratoga County EOC Head Start serves 434 children and pregnant women throughout Saratoga County. Children get ready for kindergarten through developing skills with reading, language, math, and socialization.

How are services delivered?

Preschool classrooms: 3 and 4 year old children participate in full-day NYS Daycare licensed classrooms including integrated classrooms for children with special needs and UPK classrooms for children who will be attending kindergarten in the next year. Many classrooms are open during the summer.

Toddler Rooms: Toddlers participate in a variety of activities in a safe, nurturing NYS Daycare licensed room. Currently, we operate a toddler room at Saratoga Springs High School.

Home-based services: Parents and children participate in weekly home visits and regularly scheduled group activities called PACT's (Parents and Children Together). Home visitors work with parents to achieve goals they have set for their children and themselves.
