Centers generally refer to classrooms. Similar Head Start services and opportunities are available to families in either program option. Generally in smaller communities, there aren’t enough eligible children to make it feasible to have a center. Rural Head Start is more focused on individual family needs. Rapid City Head Start offers more of a preschool environment.
