Enroll

Educare Springfield partners with Head Start to implement our learning model to the highest standards.  We follow the ERSEA guidelines that govern eligibility, recruitment selection, enrollment and attendance of children in early education programs.  Our enrollment specialists are able to determine eligibility by reviewing required documentation and conducting a personal intake interview with each family.
