”One in every 27 of students in Washington state is homeless. About half are in 5th grade or younger. And 87 percent of homeless kids in Seattle Public Schools are students of color, widening the achievement gap. Join The Seattle Times’ Project Homeless team for a hard look at homelessness in our city, possible real-world solutions and support services to help homeless kids stay in school, find permanent housing and learn to thrive.”
I received the above info from a Seattle Times email the other day. I hope Seattle comes up with a positive solution for these kids.
