District Homeless Liaison, Kylee Fuhr, and Student Assignment Coordinator, Kandiss Moore, passionately advocated for students experiencing homelessness during their recent visit to Washington DC. Their advocacy efforts involved productive meetings with dedicated staff from both the offices of Brian Mast and Marco Rubio. The focal points of their discussions centered on the profound impact of the McKinney Vento Act, emphasizing the critical need for sustained legislative support and funding for this essential bill.
Kylee illuminated the transformative power of the McKinney Vento Act by recounting poignant success stories from our very own SLPS McKinney Vento students. Through her compelling narrative, she effectively underscored the profound difference this legislation has made in the lives of our students, shedding a light on the invaluable support it provides.
