Purpose of the Migrant
Education Program
|

at disadvantage because of differences in curriculum, graduation

After School
Tutorial Program |
|
The Migrant Education Program
provides tutorial programs at several elementary and middle
schools, that have higher percentages of migrant enrolled
students, and at migrant camps. The primary focus of tutorial
programs is to provide a comprehensive academic program to
migrant students who are at risk of failing to meet the State’s
challenging academic content and achievement standards. Highly
qualified teachers work with students in the needed academic
areas of Reading and/or Math. These programs have been offered
at the following school sites: |
- Pinewoods Elementary
- Spring Creek Elementary
- Tice Elementary
- Bonita Springs Middle
- Three Oaks Middle
|
|
The Migrant Education Program
works in conjunction with the representative of Sinsiwana
Dominican Sisters, Sister Karinne O’Malley, in providing a
tutorial program for migrant students at the Saldivar Camp in
Bonita Springs. |
