Policy Issues in Special Education for Migrant Students (Article)

Abstract

Four general issues in migrant students' educational problems are discussed: access to services, availability of services, appropriateness of services, and continuity of services. The importance of changing educational policies in order to provide services to migrants is discussed, and statutes of six states which serve migrant students are examined. It is concluded that state statutes in these six states do not preclude interstate cooperation in order to solve problems of educating migrant handicapped students. © 1982, Council for Exceptional Children.
