Welcome to DeSoto Ready Start!

Desoto Ready Start is excited to help provide a quality education to Desoto Parish children from birth to 5 years. We believe that early childhood education is critical to a child’s development, especially the years before they reach kindergarten.  Our goal at DeSoto Ready Start is to provide each child with the best education possible so they can enter kindergarten well-prepared and are #DesotoReady!
