Though every new school year brings unique challenges for students, few are as difficult to overcome as those facing homeless students. Each year, school personnel work to identify every homeless student in their districts while school is in session. This includes students who are living in shelters, motels or hotels, doubled up with family or friends, or on the street. (This measure is different than the one that the Department of Housing and Urban Development uses.)http://www.endhomelessness.org/page/-/09-15-2015_Students_Identified.gif/@s_1@q_100
