The MVP team had a great time out and about training OCPS department staff again this week. Did you know that OCPS transports over 50,000 students daily during the school year??? 😳 Thank you to our bus driver team for letting us share information so that you can help in supporting our MVP students.

Two weeks from Tuesday is the first day of school! Don't forget MVP qualifying families must identify each school year to ensure the McKinney-Vento rights are provided to students.
Our MVP team was out identifying families at the 4C Florida (Community Coordinated Care for Children), NCF Back to School event at East River High School - OCPS and the Family Promise of Greater Orlando Back to School event at Calvary Orlando! Come join us next Saturday August 1st at the Oak Ridge and Cypress Creek High School NCF events. See you soon!

Our MVP team spent the last two days with fellow OCPS administrators sharing information on the McKinney-Vento Act and OCPS specific resources. We had a "wild" time full of great conversation and ideas to support students in housing transition. Looking forward to a great school year!
