Abstract

This report profiles 16 successful programs currently serving migrant secondary students and out-of-school youth. Background information describes instructional and support-service strategies that have been effective in migrant programs. Strategies include advocacy, assisted studies, career development, counseling, credit accrual, distance learning, English as a Second Language, extracurricular activities, flexible scheduling, leadership, mentoring, parental involvement, tutoring, and work-study. Program profiles include program components and program descriptions. When possible, a migrant youth who has benefitted from a specific program is profiled. Also included are a list of contacts and addresses for each program. All programs were designed to address the multiple needs of migrant students, whether it be credit deficiencies, limited English proficiency, teen parenting, child care, financial assistance, flexible scheduling, or student advocacy.
