For Parents

Parents and schools need to work together for the betterment of the students. Parents play an important role in providing support and building the confidence of their children.


McKinney-Vento Program

The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act is the primary piece of federal legislation dealing with the education of children and youth in homeless situations. In compliance with federal and state regulations, the district strives to meet the educational needs of homeless students. Through the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, the district is able to provide homeless students access to school and appropriate services while reducing school transfers and enhancing educational stability and continuity. Some of the services offered to qualifying students include:

  • In- and after-school tutoring

  • Assistance obtaining vital records/documents

  • School supplies

  • Medical resources or referrals (when applicable)

    It is also the district's goal to strengthen parental involvement and to ensure the educational rights of unaccompanied youth.
