“Region XIV serving Migrant students in Delano and surrounding communities”
The Migrant Education Program was established by the United States Department of Education in 1966. The program is part of Title I Part C of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) of 1965 and most recently reauthorized by the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) of 2001.
The program is designed to provide supplementary educational and support services to identified migrant students. The Migrant Education Program Region XIV is administered through the Delano Joint Union High School District and serves students in Delano and surrounding communities.
Migrant Education, Region XIV, is a supplemental educational program which provides support services through collaborating with the Delano Union Elementary School District and other community agencies to maximize the potential of migrant students.
Migrant Education, Region XIV supports its communities with the implementation of supplemental support services for eligible migrant students and their families. In addition, the region provides leadership, professional development opportunities for teachers, instructional program support, fiscal program support, technical assistance, and identification & recruitment of students to the participating districts.
The Migrant Education Program was established to meet the unique educational and social needs of migratory children between the ages of 3 to 22 years old. The program celebrates and exercises its legacy of civil rights by ensuring equal access to a high quality education for all migrant children.
