North Dakota Annual State Plan for the Education of Homeless Children and Youth. Program Year 1989-90.
Blumhardt, Lynette K.
This state plan is North Dakota's response to Title VII, Subtitle B of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987 (the McKinney Act), which charges states with collecting information on the number and needs of homeless children and youth, identifying problems impeding their education, and developing a plan to overcome such problems. Section 1 provides a program narrative of the homeless education initiative. Section 2 offers uniform definitions of standard terms. Section 3 provides a brief summary of McKinney Act requirements. Section 4 describes the data collection process in North Dakota. Section 5 discusses North Dakota school law and the homeless child, including implications for residency, placement, tuition-free agreements, and immunization. Section 6 details the state's 1989-90 goals for the education of homeless children and youth. Section 7 describes provisions to publish and circulate the plan and to solicit comment and input through public hearings. Section 8 lists assurances of compliance with requirements for Federal funding. The following attachments are provided: (1) a reprint of Subtitle B of the McKinney Act; (2) the state's preliminary status report; (3) the final survey form sent to school officials; (4) the final survey form sent to service providers; and (5) the final status report.
