Description

The purpose of the SCDE’s MEP is to improve educational opportunities for migratory children and youth to help them succeed in the regular school year, meet the same challenging state academic standards that all children and youth are expected to meet, and earn a high school diploma. The SCDE is offering formula subgrants to eligible local organizational agencies (LOAs) to provide supplementary projects during the regular school year and/or summer through September 30, 2021.
