Transitional Housing Office
Transitional Housing Office
The Transitional Housing Office works to support students in transitional living situations. This includes students who are experiencing homelessness, and students in Foster Care. We work to provide enrollment assistance, counseling support, and can often help with things like school supplies, backpacks, and emergency food and clothing resources. For additional information, you may reach out to a team member here, or your student's school counselor.
McKinney-Vento Identification:
The enrollment process in Humble ISD includes a Student Residency Questionnaire (SRQ) as part of our comprehensive efforts to identify students and families currently experiencing homelessness. If your current address is a temporary living arrangement and it is due to loss of housing and economic hardship, you may meet the definition of experiencing homelessness. If, due to a lack of housing, you must live in a shelter, motel, vehicle or campground, on the street, in abandoned buildings or trailers, or doubled-up with relatives or friends, then according to the McKinney-Vento Act, you are considered homeless. The educational rights homeless students have under the McKinney-Vento Act include the right to:
go to school
enroll in school without giving a permanent address
continue attending the school they were enrolled in before homelessness occurred when feasible
enroll in the Texas public school district of their choice with the campus designation being determined by the school district
Humble ISD may be able to offer additional assistance to students and families who are experiencing homelessness. If you are in need of assistance, please contact the Humble ISD Transitional Housing Office at 281-641-7845. Additional resources are below.
