Homeless Education

If, due to a loss of housing, a child must live in a shelter, motel, vehicle, or campground, on the street, in abandoned buildings, or doubled-up with relatives or friends, then he/she is eligible to receive services provided under the McKinney-Vento Act.

http://www.fldoe.org/schools/family-community/activities-programs/homeless-edu-program.html

Eligible students have the right to:
  • Receive a free, appropriate public education.
  • Enroll in school immediately, even if lacking documents normally required for enrollment
  • Enroll in school and attend classes while the school gather needed documents,
  • Enroll in the local school; or continue attending their school of origin (the school they attended when permanently housed or the school in which they were last enrolled), if that is their preference and is feasible.
    • If the school district believes that the school selected is not in his/her best interest, then the district must provide the student with a written explanation of its position and inform the student of  his/her right to appeal its decision.
  • Receive transportation to and from the school of origin, if requested.
  • receive educational services comparable to those provided to other students, according to the student’s needs.
