Description:
This report describes the needs assessment conducted by the Missouri Head Start-State Collaboration Office (MHSSCO) in Fiscal Year 2014. In Fiscal Year 2012, the MHSSCO needs assessment addressed all ten Head Start priority areas. A comprehensive assessment is not required every year due to the extensive time required of grantees and the MHSSCO. Missouri has opted to use other approaches that complement the comprehensive approach and add other perspectives when not completing the comprehensive assessment. The approach used for Fiscal Year 2014 examined only these Head Start focus areas: School Transitions and Alignment with K12, Child Care and Early Childhood Systems, and Professional Development.
