Homeless
The STAC and Special Aids Unit requires application for each school year that the student is homeless. While the eligibility may extend across school years, the reimbursement is specific to a school year.
The school-age homeless student may
- be a student with or without a disability
- attend a public school district program, an approved BOCES program
or an approved private school program, if a student has a
disability.
PLEASE NOTE: The only students eligible for reimbursement from the STAC Unit are students who move into your district from a district within New York State.
Students from out of state or out of country are not eligible for reimbursement.
Please contact www.nysteachs.org for information regarding Federal funding for students not eligible for funding with New York State.
Payment requirements:
- Eligibility Form (STAC 202) - Sent to NYSED
- Reimbursement application and approval (STAC-4) - generated twice a year (usually in January and July)
- Verification of Services (AVL-Automated Verification List)
Homeless preschoolers with a disability are paid from special education funds to the county responsible for those students.
