Norwood Head Start

22 N. Main Street, Norwood, NY 13668

Last inspected Nov 7, 2025

Official source: New York State Department of Health (health.ny.gov) · All data sources

Passed. Met health requirements at the latest inspection. Some health departments report pass/fail instead of letter grades.

This inspection record doesn’t carry an official letter grade — some health departments never issue one, and others (like NYC) post it after a grace period — so CleanPlate derived the status from the reported violation data. If the department posts an official grade, it replaces this automatically.
