Where does the funding for Title I, Park CMigrant Education Program come from?
A grant from the United States Department of Education funds the Migrant Education Program. Congress created the Title I, Part CMigrant Education Program in 1966 and has appropriated funds for it in each successive year. The allocated funds are distributed by the United States Department of Education to state education agencies, which then determine how best to address the needs of migrant students attending schools in their state. Missouri received a portion of the total amount of money appropriated by Congress. Most of the funds allocated to Missouri are distributed to local school districts to conduct supplemental educational programs for migrant students. Like other states, Missouri uses some funds for necessary state and regional level administrative and support services.
