My son went to Bunn Head Start a very long time ago around 2003-2005. They helped us a lot trying to get him the help he need to learning, speech and grow and health issues he was diagnosed with then in 2003. Help get ball rolling with SSI and personal education plain that later rolled into now his 504 plan/IEP. I can't say enough about how well they did with him. I worked with kids back then everyday up until around 2009. Along with going to school and doing workshop and ECT to go forward in educated young kids. Now I've gone back to school once more to do the same thing and ECT to teach young kids. I'm proud of my son no matter how others see him. Head Start did a fine job with him. My younger two went as well but not here we had moved away by the time I started over. But I will say I am now a proud employee of a Head Start not just a volunteer. Which during my son's time there I was parent of the year. They don't seem to do that at other counties nor states when my other to where smaller.
