Yesterday I was included in the First Day Celebration at The Campagna Center in Alexandria, Virginia. The celebration was one of hundreds across the country, focused on the children and families who are part of Head Start and Early Head Start programs. Board, local politicians, families and staff shared stories about this special center, one of the first Head Start programs. Jacqueline Jones, Senior Advisory on Early Learning to the Secretary of Education talked and read to the children and gave us an interview. Yasmina Vinci, National Head Start Association Executive Director, was there for the event and helped coordinate my participation. The best part, of course, was the children. I was trying for a photo of a mother, child, teacher and another child really just put himself in the photo. Then another came by and the mother included him, much to the dismay and subsequent pout of her own son. It kind of went downhill from there.
