Comments
It seems like forever since we have been able to see one another. I hope this finds you all in good health and safe with your families in these trying days.
I know some of you are in “essential” work positions and want to thank you all for your contributions in fighting this scary battle and pray you all remain healthy and safe.
All of us here at Head Start are trying to keep in touch with our families in an effort to offer support to those in isolation and show our dedication to being there in any way possible. Below are some resources we are offering that may or may not be of some service to you. Please feel free to utilize what works for you or your family.
