About Us

Since 1966, the Western Dairyland Head Start program has been preparing young children ages three to five to succeed in school and beyond in Buffalo, Eau Claire, Jackson, and Trempealeau counties. The Early Head Start program for infants, toddlers, and pregnant women was added in September 2015. Head Start and Early Head Start programs promote children's development through services that support early learning, health, and family well-being. Learn more about Head Start.

Students have been learning about Community Helpers and today Arcadia Head Start had some special visitors from the Arcadia Glenco Fire Department. Students learned about the different equipment that fire fighters use and even got to try some jackets and helmets on! Huge thank you to the Arcadia Glenco Fire Department for taking the time to visit our little learners!
