Beryozova School
Annual Title I Presentation

2. What is Title I?
Title I is a federally funded program to assist our school in providing a successful education for all students
Title I funds are allocated to schools based on the number of low income students
Schools with a population of at least 40% low income are eligible for a school-wide program
A school-wide program:
Uses Title I funds to raise academic achievement for the entire educational program of the school
Provides additional assistance to students who experience difficulties in meeting the state’s performance targets

3. In order to have a school-wide program we must:
Have a student population of at least 40% low income
Collect and analyze data that effects student achievement
Develop, with input from the community, a comprehensive school plan
Meet annually as a planning team to review the effectiveness of the plan and make adjustments when necessary
The planning team consists of teachers and interested parents who provide input to determine priorities

Before/After-school academic programs for students
