"Requirements" may or may not allow for some discretion on the part of the grantee, however, compliance with the "requirement" is a condition to receive Head Start grant funds.

Answers to questions in this category provide informal Office of Head Start guidance to the individual making the request. These answers are not binding and do not require any specific course of action be followed. Grantees have full discretion in this category.
