Homeless Services: The federal McKinney-Vento Act and Texas state law guarantee that you can enroll in school if you live:
in a motel, hotel, or weekly-rate housing in a house or apartment with more than one family because of economic hardship or loss in an abandoned building, a car, at a campground, or on the street in temporary foster care or with an adult who is not your parent or legal guardian in substandard housing (no electricity, no water, and/or no heat) with friends or family because you are a runaway or unaccompanied youth To put these federal regulations into common terms: if you or your family has moved in with family, friends, or someone else; you or your family has moved into a shelter (normally in Lubbock); and/or you or your family are living in a place that is sub-standard (examples are RV, mobile home, apartment, or house that is very run down, or some other location that is not intended for long term living) you qualify to be on this program and be enrolled into the school district of your choice.
