UW Oshkosh Head Start is a free preschool program, serving Outagamie, Shawano, Calumet and Winnebago Counties. Head Start's focus is on early childhood development and health, as well as family and community partnerships.
The program provides comprehensive education, health, nutrition, and parent involvement services to eligible children and their families. Children served are ages 3-5 and program options include 6 hour extended day classroom, home visitation or a combination of options. We also have collaborations with some child care centers to provide services there.
