[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is this different from the local school "accommodating" any student who moves into a new apartment building? [/quote] Because a student designated as homeless has protections that are not extended to students who simply move from one apartment building to another. If a school accommodates the student who moves to a new building, that may or may not be in keeping with the laws of the jurisdiction. In DC, principal discretion is a gray area. If a school fails to accommodate a student who is protected by the McKinney-Vento provisions, they are in violation of federal law.[/quote]
