Who qualifies for CCISD’s immigrant-student supports and how long the label lasts

At a Parent 101 session, a CCISD presenter summarized the eligibility rules for the immigrant-youth portion of Title III Part A. The presenter said the category includes students roughly ages 3–21 who were not born in any of the 50 states, Washington D.C., or Puerto Rico and who have been enrolled in U.S. schools for fewer than three full academic years.

The presenter also explained that the immigrant label is temporary: “जब तालिबे इल्म तीन साल America के स्कूलों में गुज़ार लेता है, तो यह हटा दिया जाता है.” District staff use that count to plan additional supports and to apply for appropriate federal funding. Families were told the label’s purpose is for planning and funding and is not a determination of immigration or citizenship status.
