Utah Migrant Education Annual Summer Evaluation Report, 1987.
Moss, James R.; And Others
In 1987 Utah's migrant education program provided educational services to 744 K-12 students in summer programs at 11 locations. Wide Range Achievement Tests (WRAT) pretests and posttests provide placement information and a measurement of achievement in the areas of reading, spelling, and arithmetic. Results indicate improvement in all areas, but the most significant improvement was in reading. Observations and recommendations at each location address such concerns as placement, instruction, physical setting, planning, staff preparation, supervision, achievement, parental involvement, and equipment. The Migrant Student Record Transfer System, a national computer network facilitating the transfer of migrant student records, is a vital link in maintaining and updating important student information. Inservice training and coordination with the Utah Rural Development Corporation helped identify and recruit eligible students. Thirty-one tables show demographc information and test results. Included are the form used to sample parental response to the program. (SKW)
