Educational Opportunity & Student Support

Title I

We work with schools with high numbers or high percentages of children from low-income families to help ensure that all children meet challenging state academic standards

Title I, Part A (Title I) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended by Every Student Succeeds Act (ESEA) provides financial assistance to local educational agencies (LEAs) and schools with high numbers or high percentages of children from low-income families to help ensure that all children meet challenging state academic standards. Federal funds are currently allocated through four statutory formulas that are based primarily on census poverty estimates and the cost of education in each state.

Parent engagement is vital to the academic success of students. Parents are the first teachers of their children, and serve as partners with the District in helping their children achieve academic success. To engage families as partners in educating their student(s), communication and resources will be available to multi-language parents, guardians, and families.
