Several children participate in a ribbon-cutting ceremony at a school hallway, with enthusiastic adults clapping in the background. One child is cutting the ribbon, and others are observing with joy.

Families & students, staff, former staff, and community leaders came together on September 22, 2025, to celebrate the new addition of Head Start Learning Center.

The new addition to the Bellevue location provides much needed space for staff and a community room for families and students.

Students helped cut the ribbon on their special space along with Head Start Learning Center principal Patty Mevis.

Attendees were invited on a tour of the new space after the ribbon cutting.
