Task 4: Bi-National Program

Guideline: As noted by the Office of Migrant Education, "The Binational Migrant Education Program helps students, teachers, school administration, and parents through several programs. The two central components are the Binational Transfer Document and the Binational Teacher Exchange. The program helps all students who go back and forth between Mexico and the U.S, whereas the migrant education program set up in the United States works only with students who qualify under the U.S. Department of Education’s guidelines for migrants (primarily that the student’s parents make a qualifying move for migrant work)." Local educators working with migrant students need to be aware of this program and how it can be useful to the district's migrant education program.
