Students on the Move - Keeping Uprooted Kids in School

moving boxes

Coming up on the next edition of VPM Forum – moving a lot is hard on school kids. A growing body of research says children with unstable housing are more likely to struggle in school and more likely to drop out. And millions of children in the United States have unstable housing. This APM Reports documentary focuses on two groups of kids who often change addresses – homeless kids and children of migrant farm workers -- and explores efforts to help these students do well in school.
