What is Title I?
Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act provides financial assistance to state and local educational agencies to meet the needs of educationally deprived, at-risk children. The goal of Title I is to provide instructional services and activities to meet the needs of disadvantaged children identified as failing or most at risk of failing the state’s challenging performance standards.
The purpose of Title I is to ensure that all children have a fair, equal, and significant opportunity to obtain a high-quality education, and reach, at a minimum, proficiency on state academic achievement standards.
Parent Involvement
Parent and Family Engagement is extremely important. A strong connection between parents, families, and the schools is a key element for student success. Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires school districts to support parent and family engagement. The Title I funds are used for, but no limited to, workshops, trainings, and opportunities for active parent and family participation.
Components of a School-Wide Program
- Conduct a comprehensive needs assessment of entire school.
- Provide opportunities through school-wide reform strategies for all children to meet the standards.
- Provide instruction by a highly qualified staff.
- Conduct activities to involve parents.
- Provide transitional assistance from preschool to elementary, elementary to middle school, and from middle school to high school.
- Provide frequent and continuous data to help staff make decisions to assist students.
- Ensure that students with learning difficulties receive additional assistance.
- Conduct professional development through the year.
Parents' Right to Know
