Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) includes provisions that promote educational stability for children in foster care so they can continue their education without disruption, maintain important relationships, and have the opportunity to achieve college and career readiness.

As the Foster Care Point of Contact for DeSoto County Schools, I am assigned by our district superintendent to coordinate educational services and maintain foster care student documentation of records.
