The Seminole Nation Head Start & Early Head Start Program is now accepting applications for the 2026–2027 school year. Our program proudly serves Native and Non-Native children ages 6 weeks to 5 years old through our four locations: the Administrative Building and Mekusukey Mission in Seminole, Barking Waters in Wewoka, and Rivermist in Konawa. We provide FREE high-quality early childhood services designed to support each child’s education, health, mental health, and social service needs. Our program also offers inclusive services for children with special needs. In addition, Seminole curriculum and cultural teachings are incorporated into each classroom to promote Seminole cultural awareness and strengthen cultural identity for every child.
