Title I What Parents Need to Know!

What is Title I? Title I is a program that provides funds from the federal government to improve student learning.

Elementary and Secondary Education Act ESEA is a federal education law that was passed in Title I is one portion of ESEA.

Elementary and Secondary Education Act Each school and school district are measured by how well students are progressing toward and meeting standards. All students are required to make progress as measured by state tests (such as the CRCT in Georgia). A “report card” is published annually describing the progress of each school.

Adequate Yearly Progress AYP is the phrase used to describe progress toward achieving academic standards. AYP is the minimum level of performance schools and districts must meet each year. Failure of any one group of students may result in a school or district not making AYP. 100% of Decatur County Elementary schools made AYP for

Accountability There are consequences for not making AYP. Depending on the number of consecutive years of not making AYP, a school or district can be identified as NI (Needs Improvement), corrective action, or restructuring.

School Choice and Supplemental Educational Services Children attending a Title I school that has not made AYP for three or more consecutive years in the same area must be offered the opportunity to transfer to another school. Any child attending a Title I school that is in their second year of Needs Improvement or greater (has not made AYP for three or more consecutive years in the same area) may receive additional academic help, such as after-school tutoring, at no charge.

Teacher Qualifications All teachers and parapros in Title I schools must meet requirements to be “highly qualified.” Parents of students in Title I schools have the right to know the professional qualifications of staff working with their child. Decatur County employees 100% highly qualified teachers and parapros.

Why does our school receive Title I funding? Schools in which 35% or more of students are from low-income families may receive Title I funding. All schools in Decatur County qualify for school-wide Title I Programs.
