| Abstract | This annual report summarizes the activities and accomplishments of the Interstate Migrant Education Council (IMEC) during its 1986-87 project year. Extensive work on reauthorization legislation, planning for a national forum on youth-at-risk issues, and preparation of migrant education research were IMEC's major achievements during the period. IMEC's members, representing 16 states with 85% of the nation's rural migrant youth, were engaged in activities aimed at increasing the awareness of migrant students' needs among legislators, educators, and business leaders. Dialogue continued among specialists who, without IMEC, would not have had the vehicle to exchange ideas. IMEC's overall goals are aimed at increasing public awareness of the needs of migrant students, facilitating interstate cooperation among migrant education programs, and developing unique means to minimize difficulties faced by migrant students. Major IMEC achievements include: cooperation on recommendations for reauthorization of the Education Consolidation Improvement Act Chapter 1; planning and preparation for the National Forum for Youth At Risk in Washington, D.C.; publication of "Migrant Education: A Consolidated View," a comprehensive research effort; coordination of efforts with major education organizations; maintenance of linkages with federal programs and agencies; coordination with other migrant programs; participation in state-based workshops, conferences, and so forth; and publication of articles on migrant education. Plans for 1988 include focus on migrant demographics, the effects of the changing economics of agriculture on migrant education, and problems migrant students face in making the transition from secondary to postsecondary education. This document also includes a summary of the status of IMEC recommendations for federal legislation. (TES) |
