Early Childhood Center
Rosa Parks Early Childhood Education Center
Welcome to Rosa Parks Early Childhood Education Center. Its mission is simple: to enhance the development of very young children and promote healthy family functioning.
Union Public Schools has joined with Community Action Project-Tulsa County (CAPTC) to expand its early childhood program. This partnership provides both weekly home-based visitation services for qualifying families with infants and toddlers through the age of three; as well as full day education services at Rosa Park Early Childhood Education Center for Union families with children who turn 3 by September 1.
The school is free and you have to live in the Union School district. A family of four must earn less than $39,200 a year to qualify.

Early Head Start
Early Head Start (EHS) is a federally funded community-based program for low-income families with infants and toddlers. Its mission is simple: to enhance the development of very young children and promote healthy family functioning. Recent advances in the field of infant development make this an especially exciting time.
Community Action Project-Tulsa County/Early Head Start
Union Public Schools has joined with Community Action Project-Tulsa County (CAPTC), a Head Start grantee, to expand its current early childhood program. This partnership currently provides weekly home-based visitation services for qualifying families with infants and toddlers through the age of three; and soon will offer center-based full day education services for Union families with children who turn 3 by September 1.
