Mission Statement
The Henderson County Public Schools Migrant Education Program (MEP) is designed to improve educational opportunities for migrant children who change schools frequently and often miss school due to their parents’ transient work in agriculture.

The program offers academic support and addresses family needs.
Description
The Henderson County Migrant Education Program helps migrant students and youth who work or whose parents work in agricultural, fishing and chicken processing labor.
