Head Start & CLASS®

Because every superhero needs a superpower.

Each day you uphold the promise of Head Start that every child, regardless of circumstances at birth, has the ability to reach their full potential. And for that, you’re a superhero.

Every superhero needs a superpower. That’s CLASS. CLASS provides Head Start programs with a method for focusing, measuring, and improving meaningful interactions. Through the proven power of interactions, we can give every child the opportunity to experience life-changing teaching and reach their full potential.
