Title I
What is a Title I school?
- Title I was passed in 1965 under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). It is the largest federal assistance program for our nation’s schools.
- Title I schools receive additional funding (Title I dollars) from the federal government. These dollars are used to:
- identify students experiencing academic difficulties and provide assistance to help these students
- purchase additional staff, programs, materials, and/or supplies
- conduct parent and family engagement meetings, trainings, events, and/or activities
