Exemplary Programs for Migrant Children.
Mattera, Gloria; Steel, Eric M.
Since 1966, more than 1,900 projects have been funded by the 1965 Title I Elementary and Secondary Education Act Migrant Amendment and the 1964 Economic Opportunity Act for migrant children's problems of educational continuity, health, and other needed services. This paper describes various exemplary programs selected for comprehensiveness of services (both ages served and variety) and replicability in migrant or regular educational programs. The programs, separated into national, interstate, state, and local programs and special services, are: Migrant Student Record Transfer System; High School Equivalency Program; Texas Child Migrant Program; Interstate Cooperation Project; Texas Migrant Council - Mobile Head Start Program; California Plan for the Education of Migrant Children - Regional Plan; Florida Migratory Child Compensatory Program - Early Childhood Learning, Learn and Earn, and Language Arts Tutorial Programs; New Jersey Migrant Education - Recruitment Program; Demonstration Schools - Somerton (Arizona) and Geneseo (New York); Transitional Program - Springfield (Massachusetts); Secondary Programs (North Carolina); Mobile Units (Colorado); Migrant Centers (Washington, Toppenish Center for the Study of Indian and Migrant Education); and Staff Development Programs - Master's Degree Program (Oregon) and Migrant Teacher Assistant Mini-Corps Program (California).
