EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS OF STUDENTS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS/DISPLACEMENT 

Right to enroll of new district of residence

Countless children in our community have lost their homes. Per federal law, every student who has lost his or her home due to the disaster has the right to enroll in the school district in which they are temporarily housed. If they have had to move out of the county, this applies anywhere in the state.

This does not guarantee admittance into a specific school within the district, however. Districts will determine the school based on many factors, including available space.

To enroll, simply contact the school district of your current residence. If you're unsure which district that is, click here. You do not need documentation or proof of residence.

Transportation to original district

A displaced student can also remain in the school he/she was attending before the disaster and receive support for transportation to that school. To facilitate this, contact the school the student was already attending to notify them of your loss and get support.

Free/reduced lunch eligibility

A child experiencing homelessness/displacement is also eligible for free/reduced lunch, regardless of family income.
