CARE AND TREATMENT

Northeast Metro 916 provides educational services to students experiencing mental health crises who receive care in psychiatric facilities. This helps ensure that each student does not lose track of their educational goals while they are receiving treatment outside of their home schools.

 

 

 

 

 

TOTAL ENROLLMENT: 214

The number of students indicated in this report reflect a duplicated headcount, meaning that if a student un-enrolls and re-enrolls during the same school year, they are counted twice. We represent the data this way because it more accurately represents the staff time, funding and resources required to run our programs.
