Migrant Education Program
The Migrant Education Program (East Multnomah County, Region 26) provides education services and support that address migrant students’ needs and ensure that migratory children who move among the states are not penalized in any manner by disparities among states in curriculum, graduation requirements, or state academic content and student academic achievement standards. Funds ensure that migratory children not only are provided with appropriate education services (including supportive services) that address their special needs but also that such children receive full and appropriate opportunities to meet the same challenging academic standards that all children are expected to meet.
The goal of the Migrant Education Program is to ensure that all migrant students reach challenging academic standards and graduate with a high school diploma (or complete a GED) that prepares them for responsible citizenship, further learning, and productive employment.
MEP provides services to eligible students in Centennial, Corbett, David Douglas, Gresham Barlow, Parkrose, and Reynolds School Districts. Federal funds are allocated by formula to SEAs, based on each state’s per pupil expenditure for education and counts of eligible migratory children, age 3 through 21, residing within the state.
