Bay Area children facing homelessness and housing insecurity need year-round educational and academic support
Nearly 1 in 20 children in California will experience homelessness during this school year. There are thousands of children in the greater Bay Area living in shelters, transitional homes, hotels and motels, cars, tents, and other places not designed for or suitable for housing families and children. These children are two times as likely as their housed peers to score poorly on standardized tests in math and reading, three times more likely to be placed in special education programs, four times more likely to drop out of school, and eight times more likely to repeat grades. Not surprisingly, in California, the high school graduation rate for students facing homelessness lags far behind that of their housed peers, which has terrible consequences for both the diploma-less students and the economy.
