TITLE 1

What is Title 1:

    Title 1 funding provides financial assistance to schools with high numbers or high percentages of children from low-income households. For example, 95% of the students at schools receiving Title 1 funding are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. These extra funds aim to give all children a fair opportunity to obtain a high-quality education. 

Schools with a large concentration of low-income students receive supplemental funds to assist in meeting students educational goals. These goals may include:

• Improving curriculum
• Instructional activities
• Counseling
• Parental involvement
• Increasing staff and program improvement.
