Homeless Education

The federal McKinney-Vento Act guarantees school enrollment for anyone who, due to a lack of permanent housing, lives in inadequate or temporary settings, such as:

• Emergency shelters or transitional housing

• Motels, hotels, or campgrounds due to lack of adequate alternative

• Cars, parks, public places, bus or train stations, or abandoned buildings

• Doubled up with relatives or friends due to loss of housing or economic hardship
