Migrant Program Information and Facts

A primary goal of the migrant program is to increase literacy at home and assist in improving educational opportunities for migrant children to help meet the challenging state academic content, graduate from high school, and be responsible citizens of the community. 

In 2021-2022 there were 341 migratory children in the Southwest Region School District; 50% of the student body population.

All eight schools within the district have a migrant coordinator that can help organize or provide contact information for possible services for migrant children.

In 2021-2022, every migratory family received age-appropriate books, family engagement games, school backpacks and supplies, life safety boat throw cushions, STEM-related home activities, and family nights.  Pre-School readiness kits were sent out to all Pre-Kindergarten kids and a high-school life-ready academy was offered to 10th-12th grade students.
