The Title I program provides extra help to students who are not yet meeting grade-level expectations in reading or math and is designed to ensure that every child has the chance to succeed in school, especially those who may need more academic support.

How Students Qualify

Students are selected based on academic needs
Teachers and Intervention staff look at universal screening scores, classroom assessments, and teacher observations.
Students can move in and out of the program as their academic needs change.

What Kind of Help Is Given

Instruction is focused on reading and/or math skills, depending on what each student needs.
Instruction is more specific and based on specific learning targets.

Who Teaches Title I Students

Instruction is delivered by qualified teachers or specialists trained to work with students who need extra support.
These teachers work closely with classroom teachers to make sure learning is connected to what’s happening in class.

Materials and Learning Tools

Title I funds are used to provide evidence based materials that help students learn and practice critical literacy skills.
Educational apps such as Reading Eggs/Math Seeds or computer programs like Read Naturally may also be used to support learning.

Family Involvement

Families are an important part of the Title I program.
Schools host:
- Family Events
- Conferences to share progress
- Activities that show how parents can help at home
Each school has a Family-School Compact—an agreement between families, students, and teachers that explains how everyone will work together to support learning.

Progress Monitoring

Students’ progress is tracked using:
- Short assessments throughout the year
- Classroom observations
- Feedback from teachers and families
If a student reaches grade level, they may leave the program but continue to be monitored.
