Migrant Education

The Migrant Education Program(MEP) helps migrant children reach high academic standards and graduate from high school. The MEP ensures that migrant children overcome educational disruption, cultural and language barriers, health-related problems and other problems that result from repeated moves. The program promotes coordination among schools and agencies locally and within the state to improve education for migrant children. The county recruiter refers students and their families to local organizations that provide assistance related to instructional and supportive services. In addition, MEP provides services to preschool age children and young students in transition that are out of school.
