Education for Homeless Children and Youth Program
Analysis of 2005-2006 Federal Data Collection and Three-Year Comparison
ExECutivE SummarY
This report provides a summary and analysis of the 2005-06 State data collection required
by the U.S. Department of Education of the McKinney-Vento Education of Homeless Children
and Youth program. The 2005-06 data is also presented in comparison to the 2003-04 and
2004-05 data collections.
Nationally, over 907,000 homeless students were reported enrolled by LEAs with and without
subgrants in 2005-06 (a 38% increase from 2004-05). Over 450,000 students were
reported served by McKinney-Vento subgrants in 2005-06 (a 28% increase from 2004-05).
The number of homeless students tested by grade level in both reading and mathematics
increased in the 2005-06 school year, as did the number procient in each category.
The large number of students who became homeless due to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita
during the 2005-06 school year is a distinct factor in the increase in numbers reported. The
numbers reported in each category have generally increased each year since the inceptionof the federally required data collection in 2004; however, the subsequent renement of the
requirements for data collection over the three-year period has contributed to some uctuation
in the numbers from year to year in some categories.

Analysis of 2005-2006 Federal Data Collection and Three-Year Comparison
introduCtion
The purpose of the McKinney-Vento Education for Homeless Children and Youth program is to
improve the educational outcomes for children and youth in homeless situations. The statutes
for this program are designed to ensure all homeless children and youth have equal access to
public school education. States and LEAs must review and revise policies and regulations to
remove barriers to enrollment, attendance, and academic achievement for homeless childrenand youth.
The U.S. Department of Educations Ofce of Elementary and Secondary Education requires
all State, local, or tribal governments, SEAs (State Education Agency), or LEAs (Local Education
Agency) (primary) to collect and submit information to be able to determine the extents to
which States ensure homeless children and youth have access to a free, appropriate public
education under the McKinney-Vento Act (Title X, Part C, of the No Child Left Behind Act
of 2001). As stated in Section 724 (h) of the law, this data should include the number and
location of homeless children and youths; the education and related services such children andyouths receive; and the extent to which the needs of homeless children and youths are being
met.
In 2004, for the rst time, the U.S. Department of Education required States to submit
McKinney-Vento program data that was veriable and based on actual enrollment of homeless
students. Estimated data was no longer acceptable. The decision to require States and school
districts to collect data only on children and youth enrolled in school was to ensure that data
are collected consistently and accurately across the nation.
States were asked to provide data on total number of LEAs in their States; total number of
homeless students enrolled; and primary nighttime residence of homeless students for LEAs with
and without subgrants. Only those LEAs with McKinney-Vento subgrants were asked to provide
additional data on number of homeless students served; numbers of preschool, migrant and
unaccompanied youth; educational support services; barriers to the education of homeless
children and youth; and academic progress of homeless children and youth.
Data for school years 2003-04 and 2004-05 were compiled and submitted by State
Coordinators of homeless education to the U.S. Department of Educations coordinator for the
Education of Homeless Children and Youth program. For the 2005-06 school year, for the rst
time, the U.S. Department of Education required online submission of McKinney-Vento program
data as part of the Consolidated State Performance Report (CSPR), furthering its goal of state
data collection through a single portal.
LEAs have had to adapt their data systems and many are still transitioning to meet these new

federal data collection requirements; consequently, all LEAs with and without McKinney-Vento
subgrants are not represented in the data. A signicant number of LEAs submitted incomplete
data. Data reported is as submitted in the CSPR report. Any inconsistencies in data submitted
are a reection of reporting difculties at the state level.
The numbers submitted in each question category have generally increased each year since
the federally required data collections inception in 2004 and the subsequent renement andmodication of the requirements for data collection.

The online portal for the CSPR opened for submissions on November 1, 2006 and closed
December 1, 2006. It reopened for corrections on February 15, 2007 and closed on
February 28, 2007. All fty States, Puerto Rico, and the Bureau of Indian Education submitted
2005-06 data. All but two States had submitted and certied data by the December 1deadline (these two States completed their data submission by the close of the corrections
period). Nineteen States (36%) submitted problem-free McKinney-Vento data by December
1. Nine States (17%) resubmitted data during the corrections period in February, 2007 and
two more States were allowed to submit corrected data in the spring of 2007.
numbEr of lEas
The total number of LEAs with and without subgrants reported by the fty States, Puerto Rico
and the Bureau of Indian Education in 2005-06 was 16,263. Of these LEAs, 12,550 actually
submitted data (77%). 856 (5%) of these LEAs had McKinney-Vento subgrants. 804 (94%)
districts with subgrants submitted data. Twenty-six States (50%) had all LEAs, with and without
subgrants, submitting data.
Twenty-six States (50%) did not have all LEAs in their State reporting (either LEAs with
subgrants, LEAs without subgrants, or a combination of both). Texas only submitted data from
31 of its 66 subgrants (47%).

Data uctuation over the three-year period can be attributed to how the individual States
identify subgrants to LEAs for the purpose of data submission. Illinois and Pennsylvania, for
example, base their numbers on regional area counts rather than local school counts.

total EnrollEd
Homeless children and youth are dened as enrolled if they are attending classes and
participating fully in school activities. Nationally, forty-three States (83%) reported increases
in the total homeless children and youth enrolled in LEAs with and without subgrants in the
2005-06 school year. Over 907,000 homeless students were reported enrolled altogether
(a 38% increase from 2004-05). 51% (460,243) of the total number of homeless studentsreported enrolled in 2005-06 was from districts with subgrants. See Appendix 1 for a three-
year comparison of total students enrolled in LEAs with and without subgrants by state and by
grade level.

Another important factor impacting the increase of homeless children and youth reported
enrolled in LEAs with and without McKinney-Vento subgrants 2005-06 school year are the
students who became homeless due to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Louisiana, for example,
reported six times as many homeless students in 2005-06 as in 2004-05 (from 16,595 in2004-05 to 118,351 in 2005-06), a phenomenon that can be directly attributed to the effects
of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Primary nighttime residence is dened as the type of residence (e.g., shelter, hotel, doubled-
up in the home of a relative or friend) where a homeless child or unaccompanied youth was
staying at time of enrollment or type of residence where a currently enrolled child or youth
was staying when he or she was identied as homeless. As the primary nighttime residence at
the time of enrollment is the basis for identifying homeless children and youth, the data counts
regarding residence should correspond with data counts recorded for number of homeless
children and youth enrolled in LEAs with and without subgrants. For each one child recorded,
one type of residence for this child should be recorded.

The category doubled-up (dened in the McKinney-Vento Act as sharing the housing of
other persons due to loss of housing, economic hardship, or a similar reason) was listed as
the primary nighttime residence for at least one-half of the total students enrolled duringthe three-year period (an increase from 50% of total enrolled in 2003-04 to 56% of
total enrolled in 2005-06). Students living in shelters constitute approximately one-fourth
of the total enrolled each year. A review of the three-year data shows little change in the
percentages reported for each of the other categories.

Students served are dened as those students who receive services through McKinney-Vento
subgrants.
In 2005-06, 460,243 homeless children and youth were reported enrolled in LEAs with
McKinney-Vento subgrants. Of those homeless children and youth reported enrolled in the
districts with subgrants, 451,988 (98%) were reported served by McKinney-Vento services.
This percentage is unavailable for the 2003-04 and 2004-05 school years because the
enrollment data from LEAs with and LEAs without subgrants was submitted as an aggregate
gure for each of those school years.
The 2005-06 data collection shows a 28% increase in the number of homeless children andyouth reported served by LEAs with subgrants from the number reported served in 2004-
05. LEAs with subgrants (856) represent 5% of the total number of LEAs reported (16,263),
however, these 5% report 50% (460,243) of the total number of homeless students enrolled
(907,228) in 2005-06.

LEAs with McKinney-Vento subgrants were asked to collect data on the number of homeless
children and youth in public preschool programs. A public preschool program is dened as a
preschool program operated by the SEA, LEA or a local school. Head Start programs are not
required to be operated by public schools. The preschool data reported by McKinney-Vento
subgrants shows uctuation during the three-year period.

been forced to leave their home and are not welcomed in return), as well as children leaving
foster care to live on their own. The number of homeless students identied as unaccompanied
youth reported in LEAs with subgrants has increased 20% over the three-year period.

barriErS to tHE EduCation of HomElESS CHildrEn and YoutH
The number one barrier reported by LEAs with McKinney-Vento subgrants over the three-year
period has consistently been transportation to and from the school of origin. The McKinney-
Vento Act requires school districts to provide transportation for homeless children and youth
once the determination has been made that remaining in the school of origin is in the childs
best interest and if requested by the parent or guardian. Many LEAs struggle to implementthis requirement, especially if the child needs to be transported across district or State lines. In
2005-06, 665 of 856 (78%) districts with subgrants indicated that transportation for homeless
students was an existing barrier.
Although barriers in homeless education are typically dened in terms of students educational
access and success, the transportation barrier is more accurately seen as challenges that LEAs
experience in their efforts to carry out the provision of the law related to transportation to
and from the school of origin. The notable increase in the percentage of LEAs with subgrants
reporting transportation as a barrier in 2005-06 occurred in a year in which both the costs oftransportation (fuel, etc.) and numbers of homeless students (including those displaced by the
Gulf Coast hurricanes) increased signicantly. These conditions created nancial and logistical
challenges for school districts.

McKinney-Vento subgrant programs were asked for the rst time in the 2002-03 Federal data
collection to provide academic achievement data based on State assessments for homeless
students enrolled in their programs during the school year. Initially, many districts had difculty
providing achievement data specically on homeless children and youth. Since then, the data
collection has steadily improved, even though at least four States per year have been unable
to provide data (but not the same States each year). The No Child Left Behind Act requires

testing only once during grades 9-12 rather than every year as is the requirement for grades
3-8. It is also notable that for both reading and mathematics, the level of prociency for
homeless high school students included in the State assessments is lower than in the elementary
grades.
In 2005-06, the number of all homeless students who were enrolled in LEAs with subgrants in
grades 3-8 and high school combined who were assessed in reading (48%) and mathematics(52%) showed a marked increase from the number assessed in 2004-05. The number of those
homeless students assessed who were meeting or exceeding State prociency levels increased
from 42% to 48% in reading and from 41% to 43% in mathematics.
