CFDA Number: | 84.196 - Education for Homeless Children and Youth |
Program Goal: To ensure access of homeless children and youth to the same free, appropriate public education as is provided to other children and youth. |
Objective 1 of 1: Homeless children and youth will have greater access to a free and appropriate public education. |
Indicator 1.1 of 2: State assessment participation: Percentage of homeless students that participate annually in the state assessments in reading and mathematics will increase. |
Source: The data to be collected from states are from LEAs that have subgrantees and are capable of reporting such data. However, approximately only 10% of all school districts receive subgrant funds. Frequency: Annually. Next Data Available: November 2005 Data collected by state assessments are validated by the individual state's data quality standards procedures. Data will reflect information principally from LEAs with McKinney-Vento subgrants. Limitations: Collecting these data is not a statutory requirement; at this time, states will be required to provide program improvement data by 2006. Explanation: Baseline data were from a one-time collection from 2002. The 2002 results could not be disaggregated by subject matter. In 2004, the FY 2002 data were incorrectly reported (20%). The performance was actually 24%, the aggregate figure for reading and math. Data were not collected in 2003. Beginning with 2004, data were disaggregated by subject. For 2004, Reading N=55,752; Math=53,177. |
Indicator 1.2 of 2: State assessment achievement: Percentage of homeless students meeting or exceeding state's proficiency level or standard in reading and mathematics. |
Frequency: Annually. Next Data Available: November 2005 Data collected by state assessments are validated by the individual state's data quality standards procedures. Data will reflect information principally from LEAs with McKinney-Vento subgrants. Limitations: There is no statutory requirement for annual data collections to determine year to year progress. Explanation: FY 2002 baseline data were from a one-time collection. Data were not collected in 2003. Data were collected for 2004. Reading N= 21,001; Math N=19,706. |
