Question 12

McKinney-Vento Act Information for Families Experiencing Homelessness

Accepted Answer

DPAC Families, we’d like to inform you that there is a program that provides support to families facing homelessness. The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act allows our school to provide educational support and other resources to families experiencing homelessness. It is important to note that homelessness encompasses several categories including families that lost their housing and are living with other families or relatives due to economic hardship. It also includes families living in a motel, car, park, emergency or transitional shelter.

Please complete THIS SURVEY so we may determine whether or not your family qualifies for educational support and other resources through the McKinney-Vento Act.

Know Your Rights

Students who are experiencing homelessness are also granted special rights under the McKinney-Vento act. For more information please use the following links:

a) Include information regarding the timelines for appealing the suspension or expulsion;
b) Be written clearly and in a manner that allows a student and parent or legal guardian to understand each provision of the policy; and
c) Be provided in as many languages as possible, to the extent practicable.

The scholar who is suspended or expelled or is being considered for suspension or expulsion:

b) May be considered for temporary alternative placement, if, in the judgment of the principal after consideration of the seriousness of the acts which were the basis for the discipline of the scholar:
