| Abstract | The purpose of the McKinney-Vento Act is to ensure that students experiencing homelessness have access to the education and other services they need in order to meet state academic achievement standards, and ultimately, to graduate prepared for college and career. Most homeless educators work one-on-one with homeless children, youth, their parents and guardians. Undoubtedly, their care in supporting students to enroll, attend and succeed in school is critical to the success of homeless students and the Education for Homeless Children and Youth (EHCY) program. However, most state and local educational agencies lack the capacity required to provide intensive case management to all homeless students. The demands and stresses of serving homeless students often put stakeholders in the position of constantly reacting to overwhelming, immediate needs. To turn the tide of overwhelming student needs and program responsibilities to a more proactive course of action, State Coordinators and their partners need to determine where local educational agencies (LEAs) and homeless education programs underperform, under identify, or under serve children and youth experiencing homelessness. In order to help states identify areas for improvement, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) commissioned the creation of a set of LEA workbooks and this manual to support the use of data by State Coordinators and other key stakeholders in the education of homeless students. Primarily, this manual will assist states in creating or adjusting measurable goals and related targets, as well as evaluating the overall effectiveness of activities conducted on the part of both school districts and the state homeless education program. These goals and measures can then be used to inform the development of state plans and annual workplans for state activities. (ERIC). |
