1 Description: The unduplicated statewide number of eligible migrant children in grades 6 to 8 who were served in a State one or more days in a MEP-funded project conducted during either a summer term or intersession period between September 1 and August 31 of a reporting period.; Academic Year: 2008-09; Grade: N/A; Note: The unduplicated statewide number of eligible migrant children in grades 6 to 8 who were served in a State one or more days in a MEP-funded project conducted during either a summer term or intersession period between September 1 and August 31 of a reporting period. In a school district that operates a traditional-calendar school year, a summer term is the period of time after the regular school year has ended and before the next school year begins, typically from May/June through August/September. Year-round schools, for the purposes of this report, are not considered to have summer terms. Any break in the regular term of a year-round school is considered an intersession term, regardless of what season of the year in which it occurs. For schools on a year-round calendar, an intersession term is the aggregate of all those periods throughout the year when the school (or part of the school) is not in session or not providing the annual instruction analogous to the traditional school-year regular term only for a cohort of students. Even though the intersession periods occur at different times throughout the year, for the purposes of this report, those periods are all considered a single term. Thus, a student who participates in intersession programs in October, February, and June would be counted as participating in one intersession term (not three).Under Title I, Part C of ESEA, States are required to provide an annual Migrant Education Program (MEP) child count. Each State must have sufficient procedures to ensure that it is collecting and reporting numbers of students who are eligible and who have been served in a MEP-funded project during a summer term or during an intersession. An intersession may occur between two academic sessions or terms.; Source: EDFacts/Consolidated State Performance Report, 2008-09: http://www2.ed.gov/admins/lead/account/consolidated/index.html; Data Uploaded On: 01/20/2011
