The McKinney-Vento Act and New Mexico Public Education Department (NMPED) rule, provide that NEW MEXICO ACADEMY FOR THE MEDIA ARTS (“School”) must give notice of a homeless student’s right to file a complaint to raise an enrollment, educational placement, or compliance issue, or to file an appeal to NMPED when a disagreement arises between the School and the homeless student. The School shall post this notice and related complaint forms where homeless families and unaccompanied youths receive services, and on the School’s website.
