Bentonville Head Start

Bentonville Center

Welcome everyone and thank you for your interest in the Northwest Arkansas Head Start Bentonville Center. Our location in the Heart of Bentonville, Arkansas serves 41 children and their families. Known to locals as the "old water pump station", the building was renovated in 1975 and converted to the current Head Start facillity.

Our Volunteers:

  • Grace Bender: volunteers as a classroom aid. See the article in Building Blocks.
  • Burnis Leavins: volunteers her time preparing children for the transition into Kindergarten.
  • Junior Auxiliary: provides a monthly birthday party for our children. They make crafts with the children as well as give them a snack and gift.

    • Licensing

    All Northwest Arkansas Head Start Centers are compliant, Licensed Child Care Providers. Our licenses are issued by the State of Arkansas Department of Health & Human Services Division of Child Care and Early Childhood Education. NWAHS invites you to view our licensing status via the DHHS Website.

    Door Entry Security

    kes_02.jpgOur Keyless Entry System limits access to our Head Start centers by allowing entry only to authorized staff and families. Unique ID codes are assigned to each person. Codes may be disabled at any time providing a safe, secure environment for children and peace of mind for parents. Our system keeps a live record of who enters our buildings allowing us to monitor building access in real time or by printing a daily log. Each ID code may also be placed on a restricted list directly from our center computer.
