The Reporter: Midyear report shows fewer homeless students in Solano County

By Richard Bammer/ RBammer@TheReporter.com

Halfway into the 2012-13 academic year, the number of homeless students being tracked countywide has fallen by more than 200 from the end of last year. The figures — from 1,536 at the end of 2011-12 to 1,328 now — come as some districts report more students without permanent homes while others reported fewer.

Becky Cruz, an educational liaison at the Solano County Office of Education in Fairfield, was unsure if, by year’s end, the numbers would improve or worsen.

“You can’t really predict what’s going to happen,” she said Wednesday, the day after she released SCOE’s midyear count of homeless students.
