Children experiencing homelessness: Pursuant to the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act ( 42 USC § 11432(g)(3)(C) ), children experiencing homelessness must be able to enroll in school immediately, even if they are unable to produce records normally required for enrollment, such as previous academic records, medical records, proof of residency, or other documentation. If the child needs to obtain immunizations, or medical or immunization records, the enrolling school must immediately refer the parent or guardian of the child or youth to the designated local educational agency liaison, who must assist in obtaining necessary immunizations, or immunization or medical records.
