On June 15, 2012, the Obama Administration issued a memo announcing that the U.S. would not deport certain undocumented persons who entered the United States as children. This memo is known as “Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA).” Deferred action means that, even though the individual is undocumented and subject to deportation, the government agrees to not take actions to remove the person from the United States. It is important to note that a grant of deferred action does not grant that person citizenship, and it does not change an individual’s existing immigration status, nor provide a path to citizenship.

Under the McKinney-Vento Act and N.Y. Education Law § 3209, a student in temporary housing is entitled to transportation to their school of origin. Get resources for more information on transportation. Transporte Según la Ley McKinney-Vento y la Ley de Educación de Nueva York § 3209, un estudiante en una vivienda temporal tiene derecho a transporte a su escuela de origen. Las protecciones de transporte incluyen: Transporte a la escuela a la que asistió el estudiante la última vez que estuvo alojado permanentemente hasta 50 millas en cada sentido, o a la escuela más reciente a la que asistió, incluso si la escuela se encuentra en un distrito escolar diferente del que el estudiante está viviendo temporalmente; Transporte continuo a la misma escuela por el resto del año académico cuando el estudiante se mude a una vivienda permanente, incluso si la nueva vivienda está ubicada fuera del distrito escolar; En el estado de Nueva York, también se proporciona transporte por un año adicional después de que el estudiante se muda a una vivienda permanente si el año adicional es el último año del estudiante en el edificio de la escuela (por ejemplo, 12º grado); Si un estudiante en una vivienda temporal asiste a la escuela en el mismo distrito donde está alojado temporalmente, entonces puede obtener el mismo transporte que sus compañeros alojados permanentemente. Si los estudiantes alojados permanentemente no tienen transporte, y la falta de transporte crea una barrera para un estudiante en una vivienda temporal, entonces el distrito tiene que proporcionar transporte para superar la barrera; Transporte a actividades extracurriculares si la falta de transporte fuera una barrera para el estudiante que participa. En el estado de Nueva York, el distrito escolar donde el estudiante asiste a la escuela es el distrito responsable de proporcionar transporte. A veces, el departamento local de servicios sociales (DSS) es responsable del transporte, por ejemplo, cuando el estudiante ha sido colocado en un refugio fuera del distrito escolar y el estudiante es elegible para Asistencia de emergencia para familias. El DSS local puede cumplir con su responsabilidad solicitando al distrito escolar que proporcione el transporte y reembolsando al distrito escolar los costos.
