Figure 20: Chase: What did you like BEST about the Head Start program?
The teachers and staff are really friendly and nice. Everything is so organized.
My grandson's teachers were very helpful and attentive to my child's needs and IEPs
The location, the hours, the staff, basically everything.
Loved the fact that my child comes home every day excited. She would learn something every
day.
The workshops helped me a lot with my family and my child who was a Head Start student.
I liked the food for the kids.
I feel like I can trust everyone there with my child. My child always feels safe. It is a safe
learning environment.
I enjoyed how supportive the teachers and staff are towards the children and staff. How they were
able to accomplish the goals for my child.
The staff and teachers are very friendly and helpful. Also helping the kids to prepare for
kindergarten.
About how to improve or provide tools on improving to enhance my knowledge for my child's
development.
The teacher showed that she cared for my child. The staff was on top of things.
They helped me with my child and helped my son's behavior and other goals I had for him.
The staff.
The attention and quality time they spend with each child.
Made sure my child advanced his learning skills.
The attention they gave the kids and allowing me to sit in the class as much as I liked.
The best part would have to be the fact that my child always looked forward to going to school
and learned a lot more than she knew.
Some of the staff shows a lot of concern for the best interest of the kids.
My daughter’s language development and her interest in reading.
The teachers love their job and they perform their duties with excellence. My son enjoys learning
and going to school.
Everything is clean and orderly. I liked the teachers especially Griselda, Dorita, and Pam. They
are excellent teachers.
My son learned a lot thanks to his teachers and is capable of responding to questions in class.
The activities and the teachers. The language teacher was the best.
Watching the children learning to socialize.
The children's projects and songs.
My daughter's teacher, Katie, was very friendly. I am grateful for teacher Gloria's patience; there
should be more teachers like her.
Family meetings.
The ways the teachers interacted and communicated with the parents and students.
The attention the teachers pay the children as well as their level of concern for the children.
I liked that the teachers taught the children a lot and were very caring in their interaction with the
students and families.
I enjoyed seeing my daughter come out of her shell during the program. She now likes to do
things she didn't enjoy in the past.
The program really helped my daughter interact with her classmates and others.
What I liked the most was that the children are taught to create a hygiene routine, washing their
hands and teeth.
The classes were good, the classrooms well equipped with what my child needed and the great
staff and teachers.
