"I run fast when I have my sneakers on." 🏃‍♂️ We asked our Head Start students what they love most about summer school, and their answers were too cute not to share! From water tables and sandboxes to going down the slide, riding bikes, and running fast outside, summer learning at WCAC Head Start is full of joy, curiosity, and outdoor fun.
