Protecting Access to Education for Migratory Children: A Resource for Families and Educators
US Department of Justice
Many children in the United States are highly mobile or have parents or guardians who are highly mobile, including some children who are, or who are part of families with, migratory agricultural workers, migratory fishers, and workers in seasonal industries or positions. These migratory children move regularly from one residence and school district to another, and their mobility often affects their access to education. Some migratory children who lack legal immigration status in the United States or are English Learners may face additional barriers to participation in school. This fact sheet highlights specific access to education challenges faced by migratory children, explains to families where they can go for help, and aims to help public schools understand their responsibilities to serve these children under Federal civil rights laws.
