What is Title I? A Federally funded program under the Every Student Succeeds Act (replaced No Child Left Behind) Intended to ensure that ALL children have the opportunity to obtain a high-quality education Provides flexible funding to support strategies to increase student achievement at the highest need schools Our school is fortunate to receive Title I funds to supplement our school’s programs

How Title I Works Every year, the Federal government decides how much funding to provide for Title I and it is sent to the states. The Florida Department of Education uses a formula to divide the funds to the districts. The school district selects schools in greatest need based on the number of students qualifying for the free/reduced lunch program. After looking at district data, it is decided what services will be provided to the Title I schools. The Title I schools receive the remaining funds to support strategies in their School Improvement Plans.

Who decides how funds are used? The School Advisory Council (SAC) - includes parents, teachers, support staff, community members, the principal and students (at the middle and high school level). You are invited to be a member of the School Advisory Council! Your input is important. If you are interested, mark “yes” on your evaluation or sign up in your child’s classroom.

Our Title I Funds You should have received a handout showing you what your school receives in Title I funding and how the school is using the funds.

Input on spending Title I Parent Involvement Funds We need your ideas about how Title I parent involvement funds can be used to: 1. Help parents understand the Title I program and requirements (Parent Nights, Information Nights) 2. Teach parents ways to help their children improve their academic achievement (Testing Nights, Science Nights) 3. Encourage parents to interact in school activities that involve academic achievement If you have suggestions, please share them on your evaluation form.

Parent Involvement Plan Every year, the School Advisory Councils at Title I schools develop a Parent Involvement Plan (PIP) using the information that parents provide in the Title I Spring Parent Survey. A summary of the plan is sent to all families at the school. The entire plan is located in the Public Information Notebook (purple) in the front office and on the school’s website. You, as Title I parents, have the right to be involved in the development of the Parent Involvement Plan. Join the School Advisory Council!

Parent-School Compacts (At Elementary Schools) The purpose of a Parent-School Compact is to provide the teacher, parent and student an opportunity to talk about: The student’s likes and dislikes The student’s tests results Areas of academic strengths and weaknesses What each participant needs do to help the student improve academically. Your child’s teacher will begin scheduling conferences with you to discuss these with you one-on-one in October! You, as Title I Parents, have the right to help development School- Parent Compact form. Join the School Advisory Council!

Be Part of the Decision Making Team! If you would like be part of a team that helps make decisions that impact this school and Title I, join the School Advisory Council. You are NEEDED! If you are interested, indicate so on your evaluation. We need two parents from each school to serve on the Title I District Parent Task Force. This group makes decisions that impacts funding and programs for all Title I schools. We meet 3 to 4 times a year for 1 hour. Meetings are offered twice at 11:30 a.m. and 5:15 p.m. If you are willing to serve, please indicate so on your evaluation form.

What standards will my child have to achieve? Florida has adopted the Florida Standards. The website, has a list of the standards by subjects and grade levels. There are videos to help you and your child to understand the standards.

How are you evaluating my child’s achievement? MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) is an on-line test given at the beginning, middle, and end of the school year. The results help you see the progress your child is making. When you get the results, you may contact your child’s teacher to explain them. Sample questions are found at warmup.nwea.org.warmup.nwea.org Florida Standards Assessments (FSA) is given to students starting in 3rd grade in the spring. The results are usually delivered in the summer. You will want to review the results from last spring with your child’s current teacher(s) during a conference. Go to to take a practice test. End of Course Exams for middle/high schools are given throughout the year. Check the district website for the calendar.

Your involvement is Key to your child’s success! You are your child’s first teacher. You have the ability to influence your child’s education more than any teacher or school. Make sure your knows that you feel school is important.

Support Your Child’s Education Praise your child’s efforts Celebrate successes Make sure your child is at school and on time EVERYDAY (unless they are running fever or have virus issues)!
