Migrant Education Workshops
Identification & Recruitment (Ages 3-21)
The ESC will provide required information to districts in meeting compliance with state and federal laws, regulations, and guidelines. The migrant component at Region 10 has funds set aside for recruiting purposes. The ESC will be responsible for training recruiters, providing technical assistance, and maintaining the auditable records for all children identified in non-project districts. Awareness training will also be conducted on site. The ESC will send copies of NGS data to each district to assist in maintaining data entry activity.
New Generation System (NGS)
The ESC will encode student data for non-project districts. The ESC will attend to districts needs in meeting the requirements and timelines for NGS data and provide technical assistance and school district reports for information and documentation. The ESC will provide technical assistance to districts for encoding correct information in the Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS) to ensure that migrant student data are consistent.
Graduation Enhancement Program (Grades 7-12)
Programs include, but are not limited to, direct instruction, tutorials, distant learning, SAT/ACT fees, counseling or migrant services coordination, life management skills retreats, correspondence and advanced placement courses, drop-out recovery, and parent training on graduation requirements.
Secondary Credit Exchange and Accrual Process (Grades 9-12)
This includes, but is not limited to, identifying overage migrant students who are not on track to graduate with their 9th grade peers in the general student population, as well as making timely, up-to-date course credit consolidations, proper course placements for late-entering students, and credit updates in NGS for early withdrawing students.
