This is a recirculation of a 2023 letter written by Adam Schott, Deputy Assistant Secretary, Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, to remind State educational agencies' (SEAs') of responsibilities to support the unique needs of students in foster care, as required under Title I, Part A (Title I) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA). This letter provides important reminders about the ESEA's educational stability requirements for students in foster care, recommendations for effective implementation of these requirements, and information about upcoming technical assistance opportunities to support SEA implementation efforts. It includes additional information highlighting a November 2023 Information Memorandum issued by HHS's Administration on Children and Families.
