Program Services
Title IC Migrant Education Program Services
Services are those educational or educationally related activities that:
- directly benefit a migrant child
- address a need of a migrant child
- are grounded in scientifically based research, and
- are designed to enable the program to meet its measurable outcomes
The Title IC Migrant Education Programs services must be supplemental and never supplant, always the last dollar spent. The program is established in the state of Nebraska through 14 different projects that offer supplemental services based on the needs of the migrant student/youth in a school district or region.
