EMPOWERING HOMELESS STUDENTS THROUGH INCLUSIVE EDUCATION

Implementing the McKinney-Vento Act: Our Commitment to Equal Educational Opportunities

At Manchester Academic Charter School (MACS), we’re dedicated to supporting homeless students, ensuring they receive the education they deserve. The McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act guides our efforts, providing a framework for comprehensive support.

Since 1987, this crucial legislation has been a lifeline for homeless individuals and families. It funds essential services like shelters and mental health support, while also safeguarding homeless students’ right to education. At MACS, we take this responsibility seriously. We understand the unique challenges faced by students experiencing homelessness. That’s why we’ve created a welcoming, supportive environment that addresses their academic, social, and emotional needs. From transportation assistance to individualized support, we’re committed to helping these students overcome obstacles and reach their full potential.

Together, we’re building a more inclusive educational community at MACS, where every student has the opportunity to thrive.
