The Migrant Education Program is designed to:

• Advocate for migrant students to participate in higher-level mathematics courses in middle and high school.
• Implement a comprehensive, timely assessment program to monitor the progress of targeted students.
• Use alternative assessments to measure the mathematics skill development of English learners.
• Use students’ home language to build understanding of mathematics concepts.
• Use culturally relevant materials to build understanding of mathematics concepts.
• Use hands-on, developmentally appropriate learning activities.
• Use curriculum for summer academies that addresses students’ specific learning needs.
• Provide immediate feedback for students as they are learning.
• Provide accelerated learning activities not remediation activities.
• Provide individual and small group tutoring.
• Encourage parent engagement via Family Day activities online or in-person on the Cal Poly Pomona Campus.

Each of our programs consists of integrated math and ELA  instruction combined with project-based instruction in engineering, computer science, design and coding animation or robotics.

Hands-on mathematics instruction includes:

• Curriculum aligned with the Migrant Education State Services Delivery Plan
• Pre- and Post-Assessments to measure learning outcomes
• Use of primary language to support instruction
• Focus on California’s grade-level content standards
• Algebra readiness for middle school students
• Geometry and advanced algebra for high school students
• Interactive math activities and review of math vocabulary
