Abstract | Under the McKinney-Vento Act, students who experience homelessness have the right to remain in their school of origin or to immediate enrollment in a new school. Eligible English learners (ELs) who are homeless have the right to access language assistance services. States must ensure that homeless children and youths have equal access to free, appropriate public education. Every public school district must assign a local homeless education liaison, also called a McKinney-Vento liaison, to ensure that homeless children and youths are identified and that they are informed of and have access to all services to which they are entitled. This fact sheet provides figures on: (1) Percentage of Enrolled Homeless Students Who Are English Learners: 2018-19 School Year; (2) Percentage of Students Who Experienced Homelessness by English Learner Status: 2016 to 2019; and (3) Number and Percentage of Homeless Students among K-12 Students by Public School District Geographic Locale: School Year 2016-17. [For the 2020 edition of this fact sheet, see ED613112.] (ERIC). |
