Windy Hill, Associate
Commissioner, Head Start Bureau, Letter to All Head Start
Organizations
Dear Head Start
Colleagues,
Recently, a document
about the Administrations proposal to offer states greater
flexibility in coordinating preschool services, including Head
Start, was sent to Head Start programs for circulation to Head
Start parents by the Governmental Affairs arm of a Head Start
advocacy group. The Head Start Bureau continues to recognize and
celebrate the importance of effective two-way communication
between staff and parents and sharing of information and materials
that empower and support the role of parents in shared
decision-making. At the same time, it seems appropriate to again
share with you, your staff, governing boards and policy councils
and parents, long-standing Federal and Head Start Bureau policy
regarding political activities.
