Dallas ISD to Begin Enrolling Students Displaced By Harvey

The Dallas Independent School District says students from Houston and surrounding areas displaced by Hurricane Harvey can begin enrolling Tuesday.

The school district says it will not turn away students who do not have the right documentation, including immunization records, and it will provide assistance for uniforms and school supplies.

Children who are housed at the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Convention Center mega shelter, which is expected to begin receiving evacuees Tuesday, and wish to attend school while in Dallas will be bused to and from the John F. Kennedy Learning Center, Alex W. Spence Talented/Gifted Academy, and North Dallas High School, depending on their grade level, the district said.

The district plans to have social workers and counselors on hand to help students in need.
