What about the homeless student trend in the Blue States. An example with recent numbers. Sorry Kenny boy:

<Washington’s Homeless Student Population Grew by 30% in 3 Years

This snapshot is part of a series analyzing student homelessness in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Student Homelessness Snapshot

July 2017
  • In the 2014–15 school year, Washington had 1,073,638 students enrolled in 302 school districts (local education agencies).
  • That year, there were 35,511 homeless students in the state, making up 3.3% of total enrollment.
  • Washington had the 8th highest number of homeless students and the 9th highest rate of student homelessness in the U.S.
  • School districts with the highest rates of student homelessness were Orondo (55%) and Dixie (43%), both of which contain a single public school each.
