agree  Refugio: I would add the translation in parentheses: Program "Head Start" (Pre-Escolar). A good education gives your child a head start in life: una buena educación sitúa a su hijo en una posición aventajada en la vida.

Programa Head Start


Explanation:
¿Sabes si es un programa de apoyo para niños con bajos recursos? Por el contexto que aportas no se sabe, pero hay un montón de referencias en Internet y todas lo dejan en inglés, como dice Genevieve.
Te envío uan en que explica en qué consiste

"Head Start es un programa federal para niños de edad preescolar que pertenecen a familias de bajos ingresos. El programa Head Start está a cargo de organizaciones locales sin fines de lucro en casi todos los condados del país..." (ver ref abajo)

Un saludo :-))
