Identification and Services
Students, including preschool, who live in a "doubled up" situation with friends or family, live in a shelter, in a motel, in a vehicle or inadequate housing are all considered homeless. If a student does not live with a legal guardian that student is also considered an unaccompanied youth.
If any of these conditions exist, the student is eligible for McKinney-Vento services. These services include, but are not limited to, immediate enrollment, the right to attend the school of origin, transportation to and from the school of origin, free school meals, and equal opportunity to participate and succeed in all academic endeavors.
