Many of you may be wondering what a schoolwide Title 1 school is.  I will be providing information that will help answer this question.

What is Title 1?
It is a federal program to help all students get a good education and meet academic standards.

Title 1 can help the whole school.
A schoolwide Title 1 program allows schools that qualify to use Title 1 money to pay for educational programs for the whole school.  (Schools with 40% or more of the children from low-income families qualify for schoolwide Title 1 programs.)

Your child can benefit.
A schoolwide Title 1 program can offer services and programs that can help improve your child's education.  A good education can give our child a better chance of success in life!

Schoolwide Title 1 programs offer many benefits.
These include:
Improved programs such as;

• classroom services, like a tutor
• teachers and other support staff
• resources, such as computers
• variety, such as group activities and workshops
• professional development for teachers and other staff

Title 1 money may be combined with other funds to pay for new programs.

Equal treatment of all students
All students are held to the same high standards.  And, since the whole school gets the services, students are less likely to feel singled out.
