Evaluation Analysis Report for the Arizona Migrant Education Program, 1976-1977.
Davis, Benjamin G.
During the 1976-77 school year, there were over 8,500 migrant students enrolled in the regular school program and 1,700 in the summer program. Students received academic, health, and nutritional services following the multiple-intervention strategy developed as part of the needs assessment. All projects developed a staff training program and conducted workshops during the year. Three-quarters of the projects established a Parent Advisory Council to provide local input and information to the program's operation. Over 600 students graduated either from elementary or secondary school. During the year, pre- and posttests were administered to the students for diagnostic, prescriptive, and evaluative purposes in the areas of reading, mathematics and oral language. Test results indicated that the greatest success was in oral language in which four of the five projects which pre- and posttested students showed a gain of one year or greater in terms of student achievement. This report presents information on the State's exemplary migrant projects, enrollment, program content, project staff, information dissemination, parental involvement, program coordination, and the program's quantitative and qualitative impacts. Data are also presented on a comparison of the 1974-75, 1975-76, and 1976-77 programs. Appended are the 1976-77 final report of the Arizona Migrant Child Education Laboratory, and the evaluations of the 5th Annual Follow-up Workshop and the summer 1977 Migrant Child Teacher and Aide Institute.
