Who counts as an immigrant student under Title III Part A

CLEAR CREEK ISD · July 28, 2026

Summary

CLEAR CREEK ISD's guide lists three eligibility criteria for the immigrant children and youth designation: ages 3–21, born outside the 50 states/DC/Puerto Rico, and not enrolled in U.S. schools for more than three full school years.

A CLEAR CREEK ISD staff member explained the three concrete criteria used to identify students for the Title III Part A immigrant children and youth designation. The presenter said the student is counted in this group if they meet three requirements: "1st, they are between the ages of 3 and 21. 2nd, they were not born in 1 of the 50 states, Washington, DC, or Puerto Rico. ... And 3rd, the student has not attended school in The United States for more than 3 full school years."

The presenter emphasized that the label is strictly for school funding and planning and is removed once a student has been in U.S. schools for three years. The guide also made clear that "Schools do not ask about and do not report a family's immigration or citizenship status," framing the designation as administrative and time-limited rather than a status inquiry.
