How does my child qualify for this program?

Students may qualify for ITSA based on SAT/9 scores, Benchmark tests, classroom achievement, and attendance. In addition, teacher recommendations and parent requests are honored as space allows.

Eligibility for the Migrant Education After School Program depends on specific federal requirements. Services are provided to at-risk migrant students as identified through SAT/9 scores.

Students may request additional computer lab time to extend their technological skills with written approval from their parent/guardian.
