Successful Secondary Programs and Training Models

Author: National Program for Secondary Credit Exchange and Accural (NPSCEA)
Date Published: 1993


Since the inception of the Migrant Education Program a large percentage of the designated funds have been directed to the education of the elementary-aged students. Services at the secondary level have been much fewer and have become more sporadic as funds are less available. There are, however, many good instructional and support service strategies that have been developed for the secondary-aged youth that are worthy of dissemination. This document is the result of information gathered on the various program models currently being used effectively with secondary-aged youth. The information was garnered through review of the State and Local Activity Overview developed by the Migrant Education Secondary Assistance (MESA) project plus response to a survey conducted during fall 1992 among the State Directors of Migrant Education and other Migrant Education personnel with secondary education responsibilities. In addition, many telephone interviews were conducted to clarify and/or expand upon information from the surveys.
