Provides for the development of a new system for designating Head Start agencies and the consideration of additional criteria in evaluating applicants. Allows community-based and faith-based organizations to be designated as Head Start agencies.

Directs each Head Start and delegate agency to conduct a comprehensive self-assessment at least once a year. Terminates the National Reporting System. Directs each Head Start agency to establish a structure of shared governance through a governing body of experts and a policy council composed primarily of parents of current and former program participants. Requires each Head Start agency to enroll 100% of its funded enrollment, maintain an active waiting list, and conduct community outreach. Requires Head Start alignment with K-12 education. Provides for local and state integration of early childhood education. Requires Head Start agencies to receive the Secretary's approval before using federal funds to purchase facilities. Includes children referred by child welfare services and homeless children as program participants, regardless of family income. Excludes the basic military housing allowance from program eligibility calculations. Allows certain Head Start agencies to provide Early Head Start services. Adds to Early Head Start program service, coordination, and training requirements. Requires Head Start agencies to get parental consent before administering any nonemergency health care service to a child. Directs each Head Start agency to ensure that all of its teachers receive ongoing training in language and emergent literacy. Requires that within specified periods of time: (1) at least 50% of all Head Start classroom teachers nationwide have at least a baccalaureate in early childhood education or a related field; and (2) all newly hired teachers have at least an associate's degree in such a field or are enrolled in a program leading to such a degree.
