Bill > SB345

This bill creates a homeless education coordinator in counties designated by the state board as urban counties. The coordinator is responsible for various duties related to identifying, enrolling, and supporting homeless children and youth, such as coordinating referrals to services, expediting school placement decisions, informing parents of educational rights, and ensuring compliance with laws like the McKinney-Vento Act. The bill also allows the state board to establish qualifications for the coordinators and designate counties as urban or rural based on population metrics.
