MNA completes an evaluation of the McKinney Vento Homeless Assistance Act grant program for Anne Arundel County Public Schools (AACPS, MD)

Between April and August 2016, MNA engaged the staff at the Pupil and Personnel Services (PPS) at AACPS to complete the external evaluation of the homeless education program a.k.a McKinney Vento Act (MVA) within the county. Using online surveys, discussion notes, and extant data on student enrollment, attendance, transportation usage, and advanced course-taking patterns in high schools, MNA completed a descriptive study of the program implementation.
