State Annual Evaluation Report for Migrant Programs in Pennsylvania. ESEA Title I Migrant Education Report, Fiscal Year 1976.
Inskip, George B., Comp.
Designed to meet the children's academic, vocational, and social needs, Pennsylvania's migrant programs served 1,393 children during 1976. Social workers, local ministers, project staffs, and the Migrant Student Record Transfer System (MSRTS) office staff at Millersville identified and recruited the children. School records were used to identify 5-year migrants. In many programs, designed to allow flexibility in the placement of children as they progressed, children were grouped by needs, and classrooms were ungraded. All programs were specifically designed as summer programs that emphasized instruction that enhanced learning experiences in regular school. Program effectiveness was determined during a 3-day visit to each program by an evaluation team who used evaluative criteria based on the 11 national goals for migrant education and the objectives listed in the project application. Overall the programs were effective in meeting the various objectives. This report presents the evaluation summaries of the State and the individual projects, the 11 national goals of migrant education, and excerpts from the application for 1977 funds. Included is information on the Puerto Rico and Pennsylvania Liaison Officer, program development, Migrant Teacher/Parent Resource Center, Lincoln Intermediate Unit Pilot Program in Career Exploration, Pennsylvania Model Migrant Project Drop-Out Prevention, Pennsylvania Reading Assessment Test, Totline Tidbits for Parental Development, and Pennsylvania Migrant Education Workshops.
