Annotation: Everybody likes Head Start. The only clear-cut victory of the War on Poverty, it enjoys bipartisan support and is seen as a linchpin in the Clinton administration's plans to reinvigorate our educational system. Now, one of the founders of Head Start reveals the program's tumultuous history and suggests how it can be improved to ensure that our schools benefit all our children.
