NMCAA Preschool - Falmouth

NMCAA Offers several program options designed to meet family needs. Each offering may have a different look but all share a common goal of assisting parents to be their child’s first and most important teacher. Parent involvement is the key factor in producing long term outcomes for families enrolled in the program. Parents are actively involved by volunteering in the classroom attending relevant training and participating in the planning budgeting and staff selection process. Each child enrolled is assessed individually in both cognitive and emotional domains to foster the greatest possibility for later school success. They also receive medical and dental services. Sound nutritional habits are developed on a daily basis. Head Start works with other community resource providers to ensure needs of families are met.
