Education for Homeless Children and Youth Policy

 

The McKinney‐Vento Homeless Assistance Act, reauthorized in December 2001, ensures educational rights and protections for children and youth experiencing homelessness. The purpose of this policy is to set forth the policies and procedures for enrollment and education of homeless children and youth at the Hawking STEAM Charter Schools (“Hawking STEAM Charter Schools”).
