The McKinney-Vento program supports students experiencing homelessness by providing educational stability. If your student lacks a fixed, adequate, or regular nighttime residence, they may qualify for McKinney-Vento services. To apply for this program, complete the online application for the 2023/24 school year. 

The 2023/24 school year application window opened on May 15, 2023, and will remain open during the entire 2023/24 school year. Applications must be completed online and are available in your preferred language via computer or smartphone. Please remember that applications for McKinney-Vento services must be submitted every school year, even if there is no change to your housing.

To learn more about how a student may qualify for McKinney-Vento or to understand your child’s rights under the McKinney-Vento Act, please visit the LCPS McKinney-Vento webpage.
