As I look back on the year just ended, I cant help but reflect on what a significant time it has

been in the life of Douglass Community Services and Head Start/ Early Head Start.

First of all we accomplished the feat of adding several new staff and creating partnerships withseveral new organizations to implement an additional 72 Early Head Start children. We begana new teacher mentoring project in which Master Teachers spent time helping our staff becomeeven better at the opportunities provided us in the classroom. We also began the process ofidentifying volunteers who will serve as mentors to our children who have a parent in theprison system. We have continued to strengthen the relationships between couples and helpsingles and adolescents develop relationship skills through the Healthy Families Project. Allthe while we continued providing quality services to our children and their families in our eightcounties we serve.

As we look forward, we do so with a careful eye on the fiscal implications that the federalbudget process may have on our programs. As is evident, this process is ongoing and a bituncertain. Rest assured we are planning ahead, preparing for any bumps in the road. As thefuture unfolds, we intend to be right here, continuing the excellent services you have grown

accustomed to and expect.

We do need your help. I hope you will always be looking for ways you can be a part of ourefforts. Whether it is volunteering in the classroom, serving on one of our numerouscommittees, helping around the centers, or working as an advocate for continued funding, yourservices are necessary and appreciated.

As I look ahead to the coming year, I do so with anticipation because of what I see still needsto be accomplished. With your assistance we will surge ahead and, once again, be able to makea significant impact on our children, families, and communities.

Head Start Directors Letter to the Community:

In 2010, Douglass Community Services Head Start and Early Head Start programs continued to grow and provideadditional services to Head Start families and the communities in which Head Start centers are located. Resourcesmade possible through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act 2009 were prudently used to ensure goodstewardship of taxpayer funds. The highlight for our program was the ability to replace the aging facility in NewLondon with one that will now meet all state licensing regulations and provide an environment for quality care andacademic instruction. We were also able to upgrade other facilities and playgrounds that have been neglectedbecause of years of increased costs without increased funding.

Families in our communities continue to struggle as community economic conditions create a decrease in resources

and more competition for available resources. Six hundred forty one (641) families received Head Start services in2010. Thirty one (31) DCS Head Start families were homeless at some point during 2010.

Because of Head Start services, 570 children became up-to-date on the Missouri schedule of preventative andprimary health care and 455 children received preventive dental care. In addition, twenty pregnant, teenage girlsreceived prenatal education and were ensured of prenatal and postpartum health care.

Special grant funding provides opportunity to share our resources with others in the community. The HealthyFamilies program continued in all eight counties in the DCS Head Start service area with 250 individualscompleting a total of 6,552 hours of relationship building skills sessions in 2010. These sessions build awarenessabout how to treat significant partners and the effect that relationship has on their childrens behaviors and

influences the success of their own relationships.

New to DCS Head Start in 2010 is the Mentoring Children of Prisoners grant which will be fully operational in2011, offering children ages 4 to 18 mentors who create quality, long lasting, one-on-one relationships providingrole models for future success.

In 2010, the 133 employees of Douglass Community Services Head Start contributed $3,768,566 to thelocal economy through their payroll. Seventy three percent of Head Start and Early Head Start teachershold degrees in education or a related field. And, although not a grant requirement, 34% of social servicestaff hold degrees in a social service related field.

Thank you to our community partners, volunteers and donors for your supportlast year. Everyone at DCS Head Start appreciate your show of support for ourwork in helping children and families to meet their full potential.

The DCS Head Start/Early Head Start Mission is to help children and families realize theirfull potential.

The truth about poverty in Douglass Community Services Northeast Missouri services areatoday is that over one in four children (26.9%) live in a poverty household. 92% of DCSHead Start families served in 2010 had income below 100% federal poverty line which is$22,050 for a family of four. Research suggests that on average a family of four needs$44,100 to meet their most basic needs (Missouri Community Action Partnership).

Head Start services were provided to 31 homeless families in 2010, a 28% increase over

2009. DCS Head Start, Early Head Start, and Healthy Marriage Initiative made a lastingimpact in communities across eight counties in Northeast Missouri through direct servicesprovided to 715 families.

Economic Impact:

The DCS Head Start and Early Head Start program provides quality early childhoodeducation and care, free of charge, so that parents can stay in the workforce and be assuredthat their children are in a safe and nurturing environment. Eighty-five percent (85%) ofDCS Head Start families live on less than $15,000 a year. The average annual cost of childcare in our area is $5,675or a minimum of 38% of income. (Child Care Aware Missouri,2010). DCS parents could not afford to pay for child care and remain in the workforce.

In addition, the 133 employees of DCS Head Start contributed $3,768,566 to the localeconomy through their payroll in 2010.

School Readiness

Through comprehensive services children were prepared to compete academically,physically and socially with their peers. Families were assisted in improving their owneducational levels and marketable job skills, as well as being prepared to support their

childs learning throughout their school career.

Childrens academic growth is supported in DCS Head Start classrooms to prepare the

child to more readily succeed in school. Measurements of childrens progress are aligned

with Missouris state pre-K standards. 100% Head Start teachers have a minimum of anAssociates Degree, with 50% holding Bachelors or an advanced degree.

Our program began using The Creative Curriculum. The Creative Curriculum is a research-based system that offers early childhood educators a comprehensive collection of resources tohelp them build high-quality programs.

The Creative Curriculum offers comprehensive support in four essential areas: curriculum,assessment, professional development, and family connection.

All resources are available in English and in Spanish, which supports Spanish-speaking childrenin maintaining their home language while they also acquire English language and literacy skills.

Before beginning any journey, you need to know where you are heading. With The Creative

Curriculum, that is the role played by the objectives for development and learning. TheCreative Curriculum assessment system, through Teaching Strategies Golduses color-codedcharts to depict progressions of development and learning for each objective. These enableeducation staff to quickly determine the developmental levels of children in their classroom sothey can plan instruction appropriately.

This system addresses 10 areas of development and learning that help teachers ensure that theyare focusing on whats most important, each and every day. The areas of development and

learning are SocialEmotional, Physical, Oral Language, Cognitive, Literacy, Mathematics,Science and Technology, Social Studies, The Arts, and English Language Acquisition.

We began using the Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS). This instrument wasselected by the Office of Head Start to respond to the legislative mandate to use a valid andreliable tool to assess classroom quality. The CLASS assessment may be used during theprogram review process and offers data for self-assessment by thegrantee.

During 2010, five DCS Head Start staff were trained to use the classinstrument. Prior to 2010, there was only one staff person trained toadminister this assessment. Head Start also implemented the use ofMaster Teachers. They work with, train, and mentor staff that scoredin the low to mid range of the assessment in order to improve their

teaching skills that, in turn, will raise their CLASS scores.

The CLASS tool is only used in classrooms with children ages 3-5.The 0-3 classrooms continue to use the Infant-Toddler EnvironmentalRating System (ITERS) to assess staff and classrooms.

All of our classrooms are inclusive and all children participate in activities on their own level.

Education Staff members are trained to look for indications a child may have a developmentaldelay. Once a concern is noted, staff work with parents to refer the child to First Steps (ages 0-2) or the Public School (ages 3-5). Our staff is strong in their support of families through thereferral, evaluation and planning process.

Each year our partnerships with First Steps and Local Education Agencies (LEAs) grow

stronger which allows us to better identify, refer, evaluate, and provide services for childrenwith disabilities..

One way we have developed that strong partnership is through the Education and DisabilitiesAdvisory Committee which meets three times per year. Good attendance was maintainedthroughout the year at these meetings and valuable input was gained through discussions onvarious topics.

We served a wide range of disabilities this year, including: Emotional/Behavioral, Autism,Health Impairment, Speech and Language, Downs syndrome and Developmental Delays.

Our performance standards mandate that 10% of our enrollment be children with disabilities.We maintained that requirement throughout the year.


9/50

Licensed mental health providers are contracted and available on a regular basis to consult withstaff and families. They include Tresa Richardson, Evergreen Behavioral Services, and WhiteOak Counseling.

Our contracted mental health consultants provide special help to staff and families for childrenwith atypical behaviors. They observe our classrooms and provide individual strategiesimmediately following the observations. Families are invited to attend these meetings andfollow-up meetings throughout the year.

We are challenged with the number of children exhibiting more and more concerningbehaviors, some of which become hurtful to others. Head Start believes the only way these

children can become more social is to have them in a social program such as ours, and helpingto teach them new ways to deal with feelings and frustrations. However, we must keep all ofour children and staff safe and this is sometimes a difficult balance.

There are few mental health providers in many of our communities that have expertise inworking with young children. Numerous providers will not even consider an appointment for achild under the age of 5. Of the providers that are available to work with children from 0-5,most of those do not accept the health insurance available to our families. We are challengedwith the limited resources available for mental health services for our children and families inour service area.

We create Positive Behavior Plans with families and Individualized Intervention Plans withcontracted providers, staff, and families. We refer families to outside sources for additionalhelp when needed or requested. We strive to create an atmosphere in which every child canfeel successful socially and emotionally.

In October 2010, we received funding to embark upon a new program to help children ofincarcerated parents deal with the economic, social, and emotional burdens of parentalincarceration and relationship disruption through a new program, Mentoring Children ofPromise/Mentoring Children of Prisoners (MCP).

The purpose of the program is to provide quality, long lasting, one on one relationships thatprovide young people with caring role models for future success. It is about someone thechild can learn to trust and rely on. Mentors can take the child fishing, to a movie, showthem how to cook, go to the park, take them to church or just spend an hour listening tothem.

The age range of the children is 4-18 years old. All volunteers receive training andbackground checks. Special care is be taken to match up children and mentors to ensureestablishment of a positive relationship for a minimum of 12 months.

For the first year, MCP will serve 60 children in Marion and Ralls counties. In the second

year, MCP will extend to Macon and Randolph counties and serve an additional 60children. By the third year, MCP will be active in all 8 counties that DCS serves and willadd an additional 60 children.
