Enrollment Reminders

Summary

Immigration and Homelessness

Full Description

As we approach the beginning of a new school year, the Virginia Department of Education released Superintendent’s Memo No. 194-14 on July 25th.  This memo addresses enrollment requirements including information about immigration and homelessness.  It can be found at:  http://www.doe.virginia.gov/administrators/superintendents_memos/2014/194-14.shtml

 In addition, you may wish to review a Dear Colleague letter from the Department of Justice in 2011 that discusses the overlap of McKinney-Vento and the Supreme Court decision regarding immigration found in Plyler v Doe at: http://www.justice.gov/crt/about/edu/documents/plylerletter.php

 Please contact our office should you have further questions.

 Best of luck with the opening of another year.
