Elgin Head Start

What these mean, and where they come from

Small means the smallest quarter of Austin-area’s 928 licensed centers by state-licensed capacity: 12 to 61 children. Medium is 62 to 153; large is 154 to 731.

Shortlist doesn’t have these yet: cost, hours and late pickup, teaching approach, ratios and staff, a typical day, sick and biting policies.

What the state has found

This state publishes the visits that cited something but not the ones that cited nothing, so there is no city rate to set this beside.

From Texas HHSC’s published reports, last checked September 25, 2026.
