Dear Head Start Families,
We are writing to share some exciting news regarding the future of our program. Starting with the upcoming school year, our center-based Head Start services will be moving from Woodland Elementary in Barron to Ridgeland-Dallas Elementary School in Ridgeland.
Finding the right home for our classrooms is a responsibility we take seriously. Before making this decision, we carefully reviewed several options to ensure we could continue providing the best possible environment for your children. We are thrilled about this new chapter and the opportunity to maintain our presence in this community.
This move is made possible through our partnership with the Barron Area School District (BASD). We are grateful for their ongoing support as we work together to ensure a smooth transition for all of our students, families, and staff.
While our address is changing, our commitment to you remains the same. We will continue to offer the same high-quality education and family services you have come to expect. We are honored to continue serving families in this area and look forward to the wonderful opportunities this new space provides. Our dedicated Early Head Start Home Visiting Team, which is based out of Rice Lake, will continue to provide home-based services across Barron county.
Thank you for being a part of our Head Start family. We look forward to seeing you at Ridgeland-Dallas Elementary!
Wishing you well,
Ashley O’Brien
CESA 11 Head Start Program Director
