An article in the Washington Post online caught my eye recently. The topic was the number of homeless children and teens enrolling in public schools across the United States. Seems, for the 2011-2012 school year, there were over 1.1 million. This is 10% more than the previous year and 72% more than before the 2008 recession. And, the article pointed out, the 1.1 million figure is known to be an underestimate.
