Ensures that youth experiencing housing instability have the opportunity to succeed in school by removing barriers to education such as transportation and enrollment. Students who qualify for McKinney-Vento services are to be enrolled in school without delay even if the youth or family lacks the documents that are usually required as a condition of enrollment such as immunization records. The Liaison works with school building McKinney-Vento designees (e.g. School Counselor, School Social Worker) to provide referrals to health care, dental, mental health and other appropriate services. Students that qualify for McKinney-Vento services cannot be penalized for infractions, such as absenteeism, if it is due to their housing instability. Under the McKinney-Vento act, students must be allowed to attend their school of origin "to the extent feasible." Factors that may be considered include: - The age of the child or youth - The impact the commute may have on the student's education - Personal safety issues - The student's need for special instruction - Length of anticipated stay in temporary shelter or other temporary location - Time remaining in the school year District boundaries are not a factor in the decision. Students that qualify for McKinney-Vento services also have the right to be enrolled in their local school "immediately" even if they do not have a parent or guardian, proof of residency, immunization records, school records or other documents normally required to enroll in school. Once students are enrolled, the liaison will help get records from the last school and any medical records if necessary, otherwise this is done by the office staff at the school.
