The Migrant Education Regional Office at ESD 105 is focused on enhancing the learning success of migrant students with services designed to promote the advancement of the "whole child" inclusive of home, school and community. With approximately 21,000 migrant students attending our schools and needing services in Central Washington, MERO works with districts, schools, and teachers to explore, increase their understanding, and implement federal and state programs that support migrant student learning and parent involvement. Our services are part of ESD 105's commitment to improve school and student success in our region. Our professional resource team helps teachers to integrate learning strategies into the classroom with a focus on English language literacy, reading and math. Our Parent Services coordinator works with schools to help them engage parents as partners in their children's education. Because we know that healthy students are more likely to reach their fullest educational potential, MERO combines services with health care providers and other partners to provide the Migrant Education Health Program. To promote setting goals and reaching for the stars, MERO annually sponsors the attendance of migrant students to Space Academy in Huntsville, Alabama. The Migrant Education Regional Office at ESD 105 is one of three MEROs in the state. We serve Benton, Columbia, Franklin, Grant, Kittitas, Klickitat, Walla Walla and Yakima counties. The Migrant Education Regional Office, with support from federal Title 1 and Title III funds, serves in liaison activities between the U.S. Department of Education Migrant Education Program, the Office of State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Migrant and Bilingual Education, and the schools, communities and parents working directly with students.
