Comprehensive Needs Assessment

The primary purpose of the Comprehensive Needs Assessment Initiative is to guide the overall design of the MEP on a statewide basis. The Kansas Migrant Education Program is required to identify the special educational needs of migrant children and determine the specific services that will help migrant children achieve the state’s measurable outcomes and performance targets. Because there are never sufficient resources to meet all the needs of migrant children, the comprehensive needs assessment helps the state MEP and local projects prioritize those needs.
