President Lyndon Johnson's "Head Start" was an early childhood education program launched in 1965 as part of his War on Poverty initiative. It aimed to provide children from low-income families with access to comprehensive preschool education, health services, and nutrition assistance, thereby promoting school readiness and improving long-term educational outcomes. The program emphasized holistic development, addressing not just academic needs but also social, emotional, and health aspects of children's lives. Head Start has since become a cornerstone of early childhood education in the United States.
