What happens if a family or unaccompanied youth who is homeless is refused enrollment or transportation services?
Families and unaccompanied children and youth who are homeless may dispute decisions made by the district regarding school selection or enrollment in a school. The homeless liaison is required to assist parents and unaccompanied children and youth through the district s dispute resolution process. If a dispute is not resolved after going through the district resolution process, the parent or unaccompanied youth may send a request for resolution to the Superintendent s Office of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. Disputes involving homeless issues follow the Chapter PI 1 complaint resolution process.
