Tool Search: Migrant
The Migrant tool captures information for students whose parents/guardians move frequently in an effort to find work or better living conditions. The Federal Migrant Program provides support for these students to be successful in their education. Kentucky Migrant Region Coordinators and other staff members can track migrant program information for each student in a school or district.
See the core Migrant article for information on necessary tool rights, available Ad hoc fields, and guidance on adding and printing Migrant records.
Migrant records are created and maintained at the state-level and published down to districts. Records at the district-level are read-only.
