1.0	Sending a student who is enrolled in the same school throughout the school year, and is identified as homeless	The district in which the student is enrolled will submit the student Homeless Program Association (SHPA) The SHPA Begin Date is a required field and should be either on the day the student's enrollment (SSA) began OR on the date when a student is identified as homeless. Because the student is homeless for the entirety of the school year, the End Date is not needed.

2.0	Sending a student who is enrolled in the same school throughout the school year, and is identified as temporarily homeless	Because the student is homeless for a specified period of time, the SHPA End Date must be updated for when the student finds permanent residence, which can be any time during the enrollment period. The Homeless End Date is the date when a student secures permanent residence and is no longer identified as homeless. If SHPA End Date is not known, then enter the student's exit date, leave it blank, or provide DPI the school year end date	POST on /studentHomelessProgramAssociation : beginDate: 2022-08-01 endDate: 2022-10-14 homelessprimaryNighttimeResidenceDescriptor: uri://dpi.wi.gov/homelessprimaryNighttimeResidenceDescriptor#S homelessUnaccompaniedYouth: true
3.0	Sending a student who is identified as homeless at School A, and transfers to School B and continues to be homeless	School A will submit the Begin Date as the date the student was first identified as homeless. School A leaves the End Date null because the student hasn't yet found permanent residence. When the student transfers to School B, School B then submits an SHPA record with Begin Date as the date the student enrolled, as the student has continued to be homeless. The End Date is null for School B as well because the student has still not secured permanent residence. Two SHPA records cannot overlap within the same school during a given school year.

4.0	Sending a student who is identified as homeless at School A, and transfers to School B but is no longer homeless	School A will submit the Begin Date as the date the student was first identified as homeless within the enrollment period. School A submits the Homeless End Date as the date the student finds permanent residence and must be within the enrollment period. School B does not need to submit an SHPA record for the student because the student has not been identified as homeless during the enrollment period with School B.
