Oregon Early Learning Head Start & Pre-Kindergarten Program - Clackamas County Children’S Commission

I would like to start with that the teachers at estacada school deserve 5 stars they are amazing they have helped my son in so many ways. But the school administration deserves 0. They have literally the worst planning and communication skills I have ever seen.They are closing the school mid school year to do construction. Schools are supposed to wait till the summer not winter. This is gonna hurt so many kids and parents not just me.Many of us dont drive so finding another school isnt really an option.

I enjoy my Early Head Start at Wichitca my parents always share positive feedback they feel very comfortable leaving their child in my care. I come to work with a smile and at the end of the day I am still smiling. I make the commute from Vancouver and people often question me why would you do that. My response is always the same I love my job and the place I work.

Only positive experience for my family My daughter adores all her teachers as do I. They are always in communication and asking how we are doing. Ready with what ever resources we may need food clothes assistance job opportunitiesresources ect. During closures they offered meal pickups daily and provided more than enough supplies for at homevirtual learning. Monthly they do family gathering and provide the dinner. They even did a cooking class for us parents they provided tools and all ingredients needed. Im very appreciative of all they do for families and very greatful for the teachersstaff specifically the Estacada location. Amazing ladies

My son was non verbal when he started going to the Estacada headstart. His teachers are a blessing. Not only is he striving and getting the help he needs but they are the most caring people I met. Best headstart

Clack Co Kids is a true full service agency that exists to serve the children and families in our community. They lift people up and offer opportunity to grow. Our family has had a priceless experience with Clack Co Kids. We will be forever thankful for their support.

I belive in the mission. And the ESs and teachers really do the best they can. The upper leadership has been dropping the ball for a few years. Driving good teachers and staff away to other ventures and companies.

My son loves his teachers and the staff. No matter what youre having to go through you dont have to do it alone. Very helpful

I applied for a position here and I was told I would be getting the confirmation link for the interview and a call and we scheduled it but i never got any email or call. Very disappointed in the interview process here. I also reached out but never got a response back to reschedule.

We had such a positive experience with the Head Start program. It started off shaky due to some staffing issues but they were able to provide enough support to the students that it didnt matter. During COVID we were feeling pretty disappointed that the program wasnt going to continue in person but boy did they make up for it. We had so many resources and friendly people to talk to about our daughters learning food to eat and weekly supplies pick ups to keep the little ones busy. And then we were made available additional online opportunities for learning play fun cooking story time. So while we were unable to go back in person they definitely worked their butts off to make sure the students and families were still supported in some way. Eye check ups and dental check ups were still available. And the staff is just so friendly that it makes it easy to ask questions to and talk. This program provided so many resources. My only regret is that I didnt enroll my older daughter in it when we had the chance

I was a very hesitant mother sending my son who has ADHD and OCD to school but we knew he needed some kind of head start program before tossing him straight into kindergarten. We struggle at home with him a lot and thanks to CCCC ESTACADA location my son did amazing. Thanks to all his amazing teachers there he loved it. Teacher Elaine is one of a kind and Im very thankful for her and the other teachers. They had a major impact on my son and little by little we watched our son change for the better. I would highly recommend them to anyone who ask about CCCC. Especially the ESTACADA location. Thank you to all at the Estacada location for helping my son and for being so understanding and patient with his crazy lil soul. I will forever be great full and I will never regret my decision on choosing to send my son to you amazing ladies. You all helped make him excited to go into kindergarten and he absolutely loves going to school
