ACES Early Head Start

🎂🇺🇸 Head Start turns 61 this year, and America is preparing to celebrate its 250th birthday on the Fourth of July.

Anniversaries give us a chance to reflect on what has helped our nation grow and thrive. For more than six decades, Head Start has been part of that story.

By helping children learn, supporting working families, and creating opportunities for future generations, Head Start reflects one of America's foundational ideals — that where you start in life should not determine how far you can go.

As we celebrate our nation's past and look toward its future, we want to hear from you. Share your Head Start story and tell us how this program helped create opportunities for you, your family, or our country: https://hubs.la/Q04lW-F10

🌈 June is Pride Month 🌈

At ACES, Pride Month is an opportunity to honor the many backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences that strengthen our schools and workplaces, and reaffirm our commitment to fostering environments where everyone feels welcomed, respected, and valued.

The data says "evidence-based outcomes."

You call it Tuesday. You call it showing up when it's hard. You call it believing a 4-year-old can go further than anyone expected—and proving it.

61 years of Head Start. Happy birthday to the people who make it real.

💚 May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚
At ACES, we recognize that mental health is just as important as physical health for our students, staff, and communities. Taking time to check in, offer support, and create safe, supportive environments can make a meaningful difference.
Let’s continue to break the stigma, encourage open conversations, and support one another because no one should feel alone.
