State Service Delivery Plan Measurable Program Outcomes in English Language Arts and Math (regular/summer) Grades K-8 Family Literacy and Family Math School Readiness High School Graduation and Out-of-School Youth Most MPOs have data measurements beginning 2017-18; two MPOs have data measurements that start 2018-19
MPOs that begin 2018-19 School Readiness and Migrant 101 training – at least 85% of staff surveyed that received training in Migrant 101 with an early learning focus will respond that they are better prepared to deliver services to migrant preschool-aged students. High School Graduation and Out-of-School Youth – there will be at least a 15% increase in the percentage of out-of-school youth served by the Migrant Education Program over the 2016- 17 program year. During the 2016-17 school year, less than 1% of out-of-school youth identified across the state were reported as receiving a service. Some of this is due to not reporting services provided but some is due to no services provided. More examples of how out-of-school youth can be served will be shared later on in this webinar.

MSDRS UPDATES
Records Clerk Reporting Reminders Verify all students have been enrolled for the 2018-19 school year, including Out-of-School youth. Verify all 2017-18 school year withdrawal and attendance data is entered by October 31, 2018. Report all academic and non-academic supplemental services provided to migrant students as per iGrant. Report assessments that are administered at the local school district. Report all referred services for migrant students, including Out-of- School youth.
Identification and Recruitment Tips Conduct pro-active identification and recruitment activities for migrant families prior to the end to the apple harvest. Actively visit local farmworker housing units before the migrant families leave for their winter destination. Conduct COE revalidation interviews as listed on the iPad eCOE App with families to ensure timely identification of Priority for Service students. Review the End-of-Eligibility Work List on the iPad eCOE App and make contact with families to determine if a recent move has been made. The following reports can be generated from the MSIS to monitor recruitment activities: ID&R Activities – Three Year Comparison COE Generation Report COE Time Lapse Report Mobility Report If your local identification and Recruitment Plan has not been submitted to MSDRS, please complete the 2018-19 plan and submit to Eric Garza – egarza@msdr.org at the MSDRS office.
Reporting Summer Events Dare to Dream Academies - over 440 high school migrant students completed a course in Science, Math and Leadership and received .5 credits from the Association of Washington School Principals (AWSP) if they attended CWU, EWU or UW last June 2018. The transcripts reflecting a .5 math, science, or elective credit have been mailed to the high school contacts who registered students in MSIS. Please help our migrant students by ensuring credits are transferred to the student’s local transcript. Course descriptions and rubrics can be requested from OSPI.
Portable Assisted Study Sequence (credit accrual) Program Submit PASS Form A, if you have not already done so, to ensure continued access to the PASS database. PASS is available for regular and summer school programs. Double-check PASS activities are reflected in your local i-grant activities. PASS Student and Contact of the Year nominations are being accepted. Please forward nominations to the MSDRS office.
Migrant Out-of-School Youth and the Migrant Education Health Program 10/17/18 Migrant Out-of-School Youth and the Migrant Education Health Program Washington State Webinar October 19, 2018 Mark Wheaton, Out-of-School Youth/Health Coordinator, Tanya Rojas, Out-of-School Youth/Health Coordinator Cindy Cholico, Out-of-School Youth/Health Coordinator, Ric Escobedo, Out-of-School Youth/Health Coordinator
10/17/18 Session Objective Gain a deeper understanding of the lessons learned by OSY/Health Coordinators from working with OSY during 17-18 school year. Describe some of the work the Migrant Education Health Program has helped accomplish in the Tri-Cities Region.
What is the Out-of-School Youth (OSY)/ Health Initiative? 10/17/18 What is the Out-of-School Youth (OSY)/ Health Initiative? The integration of coordinators in migrant funded Educational Service Districts (ESDs) specifically to address the supplemental needs of migrant students, including out-of-school youth, that may impede academic participation or graduation. Supplemental needs may include but are not limited to: health, dental, social services, alternative high school, adult education program, basic ESL support, ROP, or vocational program.

Closing the Gap: Challenges 10/17/18 Closing the Gap: Challenges Washington has the 3rd highest number of migrant students in the United States. OSY is the fastest growing population within the MEP. ~30,000 Migrant students Migrant graduation rate 68.2% 20.7% Migrant dropout rate. 1. http://www.k12.wa.us/DataAdmin/pubdocs/GradDropout/16-17/2016-17GraduationDropoutStatisticsAnnualReport.pdf
Students who have dropped out of school and have not received a GED. Migrant eligible youth, ages 16-21, who are not currently enrolled in a K-12 school are also eligible for services. This includes: Students who have dropped out of school and have not received a GED. An individual who has never enrolled in a K-12 educational system. Youth who are working on a GED outside of a K-12 school. Youth who are “here-to-work” only.

OSY Priority for Service 10/17/18 OSY Priority for Service Criterion #1 - Migratory children who made a qualifying move within the previous 1-year period. Criterion #2 - Migratory children who are failing, or most at risk of failing, to meet the state’s challenging academic standards or dropped out of school.
10/17/18 Personal Reflection: What are the challenges you see in providing services to Out-of-School Youth?
OSY Challenges Outdated information Highest mobility of any group 10/17/18 OSY Challenges Outdated information Highest mobility of any group Language barriers Too old or too far behind They have to work to help their family during the same hours as traditional education institutions. Fear/lack of trust toward government agencies. A migratory lifestyle that can contribute to various unresolved health and mental health conditions.
10/17/18 OSY Lessons Learned Migrant Graduation Specialists (MGS) and Records Clerks have been our most effective resource. MGS and Records Clerks have the most updated contact information. MGS and Records Clerks often have continued contact with other family members. Working directly with MGS referrals is the fastest and most efficient way to reach students that are at risk of failing or that have already dropped out. MGS often have a positive relationship with the student and family that can be used to build trust with the OSY/Health Coordinator.
10/17/18 OSY Lessons Learned Technology is a wonderful asset when it comes to communication and case management. The creation of an OSY Webapp has allowed OSY/Health Coordinators to keep the most current contact information electronically. The OSY Webapp also allows for recording education, employment and health information, as well as recording goals and a strategic plan for each youth. We are currently in the process of refining the referral process in which MGS and OSY/Health Coordinators exchange information regarding students.
10/17/18 OSY Lessons Learned Mental health is still at the forefront of needs for our OSY. We have an excellent Clinician that is part of our team, and helping us development new approaches to meeting this need. The Migrant Education Health Program is working toward covering a certain number of mental health appointments. We continue to partner with Youth Mental Health First Aid, WISe, Trauma Informed Care and Resilience training, and Signs of Suicide. We will continue to build relationships with new partners to add to our tool belt.
One of four WSU HEP Graduations! 10/17/18 OSY Highlights We identified that about 19% of OSY in ESD 123 are “here-to-work.” The majority of these OSY are now receiving the MP3 players with the English lessons. More than 20% of OSY were recovered, graduated, enrolled in Open Doors, enrolled with one of the HEP programs, or enrolled in another high school completion program in the 2017-2018 school year. Many more OSY received home visits, were referred to various programs, and have plans to finish their education in the coming year. One of four WSU HEP Graduations!
Migrant Education Health Program
Migrant Education Health Program Early setbacks: Tri-Cities Community Health was no longer an active partner in serving migrant students. Pasco: non-project & lost their nurse Kennewick: one of the largest project districts in the state, could not keep up with the need/demand. They reported 1225 students with an updated physical and 912 without. North Franklin: excellent job reporting, but almost all health reporting was parent-provided information.
Migrant Education Health Program Progress this year: Tri-Cities Community Health (TCCH) is back as a vital partner in serving our migrant students. Pasco became a project district, and is currently looking for ways to partner with TCCH to address the health needs of their migrant students. Kennewick is hiring a migrant nurse, as well as partnering with TCCH with their school-based clinic, in order to reach even more students this year. North Franklin has partnered with Columbia Basin Health Administration (CBHA) to move toward 100% provider-provided information.
10/17/18 Personal Reflection: After hearing about the challenges and successes of the OSY/Health Initiative, what is one way that my program can help eliminate barriers or contribute to the successes of the work being done by OSY/Health Coordinators?
