    What is a School-Wide Title I?

    Title I federally funded program. Through Title I, money is distributed to school districts around the country based on income. School-wide programs can use all funds to ensure academic support for students.

     

    School-wide programs serve all of the children in a school.  All staff, resources, and classes are part of the overall school-wide program.  The purpose of the School-wide program is to generate high levels of academic achievement in core subject areas for all students.

     

    The purpose is achieved through:

    -High quality instruction

    -Strategies and methods to improve teacher quality and professional development

    -Supplemental services to those students in need
