Tri County Head Start SMC

Tri County Head Start SMC is a school located at 58900 Cherry Grove Road in Dowagiac, Michigan, United States. Our institution is dedicated to providing a comprehensive early childhood education experience for young children.

At Tri County Head Start, we focus on promoting literacy and numeracy skills through a variety of hands-on learning experiences. Children learn about letter names and sounds, practice math concepts such as classifying and counting, and develop problem-solving skills through science experiments.

Our curriculum also emphasizes creativity, with opportunities for children to explore art, music, movement, and drama. Fine and gross motor skills are developed through activities with construction toys, play-dough, and art materials. Children are encouraged to make choices and decisions, develop independence, and build positive relationships with their peers and teachers.

We also prioritize health and safety, teaching children about topics such as fire prevention, poison awareness, and abuse prevention. A language-rich environment is established in each classroom to support children in their language acquisition journey.

At Tri County Head Start, we believe that families play a crucial role in a child's education. We encourage parental involvement and provide support for families to access health screenings for their children. Our institution is committed to attracting and retaining talented staff who are dedicated to the well-being and development of young children.
