Transition to Kindergarten. Catholic Charities Community Services, Inc. Westside Head Start and Peoria Unified School District will work together to promote continuity of services and effective transitions from Head Start to Kindergarten to support children and their families. Transition activities between both programs will occur to include preschool and Kindergarten Instructional Staff, parents/guardians and any other Head Start and Elementary school staff as appropriate. Specific activities will be outlined by each classroom regarding the needs of the children and families to help parents understand the instructional and other services provided by the school in which their child will enroll after participation in the Head Start program.
