With the potential for an increased number of undocumented or refugee school age students arriving in B.C.’s schools ahead of the September 1701 count, school district staff are reminded in this information document of the Operating Grant Eligibility directives and the K–12-Funding Refugee Policy. Directives to verify B.C. residency are not intended to exclude displaced students and their families who are B.C. residents and may have unresolved federal immigration status. Please contact EDUC.Compliance@gov.bc.ca with any questions.
