They included children living in hotels, motels and shelters, or temporarily sharing housing belonging to others.\r\n\r\nThe record numbers highlight the city\u2019s ongoing affordable housing crisis and the critical need for schools to offer extra support for these students, said Jennifer Pringle, director of the nonprofit\u2019s Learners in Temporary Housing Project.\r\n\r\n\u201cThe city should really focus its efforts on making sure these young people who are in temporary housing now \u2014 who struggle with regular attendance, who struggle with making academic progress \u2014 get the needed support and services so they can thrive and graduate from high school,\u201d Pringle said.\r\n\r\nThis is one of the biggest disadvantages that homeless students face, advocates say: Parents are often put in a difficult position of choosing between uprooting their child or spending hours on transportation getting them to school.\r\n\r\n\u201cAlmost 20% of students in shelters transfer schools mid-year, which is not surprising when almost 40% are being placed in a different borough from where the kids go to school,\u201d Pringle said.\r\n\r\nAlong with a chronic lack of affordable housing in the city, the increasing number of homeless students is being partly driven by the influx of immigrant families and asylum-seekers arriving in New York in recent years, according to Advocates for Children.\r\n\r\nBut Pringle cautioned against simplifying the problem, noting that the rising numbers predate recent immigration.\r\n\r\n\u201cFamily and student homelessness is a long-standing issue here in New York City,\u2019\u2019 she said.\r\n\r\nThe nonprofit\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/advocatesforchildren.org\/es\/policy-resource\/sth-educational-indicators-2023\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">datos<\/a>\u00a0showed dire outcomes for students in unstable housing, including profound impacts on students\u2019 academic success. In particular, students living in shelters dropped out of school at triple the rate of housed students. Additional studies have shown that those who don\u2019t receive a high school diploma are four and a half times more likely to experience homelessness as adults, Pringle said.","":null,"settings":""}}],"relationships":{"":null,"article_type":[83],"topics":[22],"misc_topics":[193,189]},"misc":{"search_results":{"":null,"excerpt":"","featured_image":13104}}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
