A flat-screen TV hanging on one side of the RV showed “Sesame Street,” but the roughly two dozen toddlers were more interested in chasing bubbles and playing at the sand table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since its launch in November, this preschool on wheels has been going to homeless shelters and city parks in Oakland in an effort to keep more children enrolled in Head Start and Early Head Start programs, which serve children from lower-income families. The stop in Chinatown gives parents who signed up for Head Start’s home visiting program a chance to socialize and get information about their children’s development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Previously, many children weren’t showing up consistently or on time, and a significant number inevitably dropped out, particularly those who didn’t have a stable place to live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This most recent school year, 78 out 423 Oakland families — or more than 18% — who qualified for Head Start, experienced homelessness, according to Everardo Mendoza, the program’s recruitment and enrollment coordinator.
