March 19, 2006

The California Legislative Analyst’s Office has issued the following report:

——————————————————-
Improving Services For Migrant Students
——————————————————-

The Migrant Education Program is a federally funded program that provides supplemental education services to migrant children. This report reviews the state’s implementation of the program. We find that the state could better target resources and better serve migrant students by implementing a comprehensive package of reforms. Specifically, we recommend a number of modifications related to the program’s: (1) funding and service model, (2) data system, and (3) carryover funding process. We also identify funding available to help in implementing these changes. (16 pp.)
