Today we kicked off our very first Healthy Cooking Demonstration with Chef Cheron from RX Catering! 👩🏽‍🍳🥗

Parents and staff came together for a fun, hands-on cooking experience where they learned new recipes, explored healthy ingredients, and discovered simple ways to add more nutritious options to their meals.

We are so grateful to Chef Cheron for sharing her expertise and helping us make healthy eating both practical and enjoyable. Thank you to everyone who joined us—we can’t wait for the next one! 💚✨

Higher Horizons Early Head Start families recently had the opportunity to tour our program as they prepare for this exciting next step.

Families received “Headed to Head Start” resource bags, toured the bus hall and buses, met their child’s Head Start teacher, and enjoyed classroom activities along with some fun on the playground.

We loved welcoming our families and helping make the transition to Head Start an exciting and memorable experience!

Learning is even more fun when it happens outside! 🌞🎨🫧

Today our students explored, created, and discovered through hands-on sensory activities. From mixing paint and splashing through water play to chasing bubbles, every activity encouraged curiosity, creativity, and experiential learning—all while enjoying the great outdoors!

🌱 Our Garden Gathering event is in full swing!

Today, children and families are getting their hands dirty while learning the fundamentals of gardening through interactive activities and engaging story time.

To help continue the learning at home, each family will receive gardening kits, books, and resources to grow their own gardening journey together.

We’re excited to be planting both a Salsa Garden 🌶️🍅 featuring onions, tomatoes, peppers, and cilantro, as well as a Pizza Garden 🍕🌿 with tomatoes, basil, and onions!

There’s nothing like cultivating a love for learning, healthy eating, and family connection—one garden at a time. 🌱💚
