Needs were documented for all age levels, but the greatest needs
identified were for preschool migrant children. The staff in selected
migrant centers developed and implemented a curriculum manual
during the 1972 summer program that was conducted in Accomack
and Northampton counties. Performance and process objectives,
with related testing instruments, were developed by the staff. After
each migrant child's needs were assessed he was placed in an educa-
tional program constructed to eliminate the identified needs.

All instructional activities and supportive services are monitored
in order to describe the actual program implementation needed. The
final evaluation reports are documented and significant group gains
in all areas are easily identifiable. Approximately 70 percent of
the migrant students met the performance objectives in a majority
of the instructional areas. The completed final evaluation reports
can be obtained from: C. L. Conyers, Supervisor of Migrant Educa-
tion, Virginia State Department of Education, Richmond, Virginia.
The Virginia Migrant Educational Program offers a multi-dimen-
sional approach that stresses academic, creative, and emotional
growth through the following:
