Washington: President Donald Trump's administration said it plans to overhaul Head Start, tossing out many of the regulations that are the hallmark of the early education program for the nation's poorest children.
Officials from the Department of Health and Human Services, which oversees the federally funded preschool program, said the proposed changes would encourage more local decision-making. Early childhood policy experts argue the deregulation could undermine Head Start's position as the gold standard in early education.
