​Homeless Services

The importance of a stable quality education in the life of a homeless child is very valuable. Crosslake Community Schools ensures the provision of educational rights and protections for children and youth experiencing homeless under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act.

Who is considered homeless?

A homeless individual is someone who lacks a fixed, regular and adequate nighttime residence.  This includes anyone who, due to lack of housing:
  • Lives in emergency or transitional shelters.
  • Lives in motels, hotels, trailer parks, campgrounds due to lack of adequate alternative accommodations.
  • Is awaiting foster care placement
  • Lives in a public or private place not designed for human habitation
  • Lives in cars, parks, abandoned buildings, substandard housing, bus or train station, etc.
  • Is doubled up with relatives or friends.

What rights do homeless children and youth have?
  • To go to school, no matter where the child lives or how long the child has lived there.
  • To continue in the school they attended before becoming homeless (school of origin) or enroll in the local school where they are temporarily housed.
  • To receive transportation to and from the school of origin, if feasible and in the best interest of the child.
  • To enroll in school immediately.
  • To enroll and attend classes while the school arranges for the transfer of school records, immunization records or any other documents required for enrollment.
  • To participate fully in school activities.
  • To receive the same special programs and services such as preschool, free school meals, ELL, special education, Title I, gifted and talented services, before and after school programs, if needed, as provided to all other children served in these programs.
