My name is Sonja Doss and I currently work for Head Start as the Office Manager (Gadsden-Etowah County Head Start Program). My two children Warren and Karina went to Head Start for two years. They are both A/B students. They were both inducted into the Junior Beta club during elementary school.
Warren has received the Gold Presidential award two years in a row (6th & 7th grades); he has also scored high enough on his SATs to take the ACT exam in the 7th grade. He has been chosen by his teachers to participate in We the People (where the children are allowed to go to Washington and see how the country is actually run). He plays basketball, as well as a former baseball and football player.
Karina is a former cheerleader and basketball player. She is an excellent student as well, she may not be exactly like her brother but I know that Head Start played a large role in how they both are doing academically and socially.
I appreciate Head Start for the things that it taught my children and myself. We are a better family due to our experiences at Head Start. Please keep this program alive so that we may continue to see children, young adults and others be all that God has destined for them to be.
Sincerely,
Sonja Doss
