Student Graduation Enhancement Program
The mission of the Migrant Student Graduation Enhancement Program is to help Texas migrant students graduate from high school by providing opportunities to earn credit at any time and any place. We offer 42 distance learning courses that are aligned with the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills and help migrant students prepare for the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills.
Since the program originated in 1987, it has enrolled approximately 20,000 migrant students. With grant funding from the Texas Education Agency and special project gifts from the Beaumont Foundation of America, the ExxonMobil Foundation, the John G. Marie Stella Kenedy Memorial Foundation, and the Microsoft Corporation, the program provides tools, services, and courses to help migrant students achieve and maintain scholastic levels equivalent to those of their classmates who remain in school throughout the year. Many of the students in the program represent the first high school graduates in their families and some will go on to become college graduates.
Cost
There is no charge for enrolling certified migrant students in the distance learning courses.
