Escuela de Verano
Los estudiantes en viviendas temporales que necesitan la escuela de verano para avanzar al siguiente grado, o que necesitan la escuela de verano para graduarse a tiempo, deben tener la oportunidad de asistir a la escuela de verano sin cargo. Es posible que se solicite a los distritos escolares que cubran las tarifas asociadas con la escuela de verano para los estudiantes en viviendas temporales. Los estudiantes en viviendas temporales tienen derecho a transporte hacia y desde la escuela de verano si el distrito escolar proporciona transporte a los estudiantes alojados de forma permanente. Además, los distritos escolares deben proporcionar transporte si la falta de transporte es una barrera para la capacidad del estudiante para asistir a la escuela de verano, incluso si el distrito no transporta a los estudiantes alojados permanentemente. Durante los meses de verano, todas las agencias de educación locales (LEA, incluidos los distritos escolares, escuelas autónomas y BOCES) también deben tener un enlace McKinney-Vento. Deben nombrar un enlace de verano interino si el enlace del año académico no está disponible durante los meses de verano.
