Title I provides federal funding for schools to help students who are behind academically or at risk of falling behind. Funding is based on the number of students who qualify for free and reduce lunches. Title I and related federal funding provides:
Additional teaching positions
Pre-K classes at some locations
Professional development for teachers
School transportation
Curriculum programs
Family engagement expenses
We encourage you to be aware of our schools performance, participate in our school improvement team and attend our Title I events.
What are School Compacts?
A Family-School Compact is an agreement that families, students and teachers develop together. It explains how families and teachers will work together to make sure all our students reach grade-level standards. Effective compacts link to goals of the School Improvement Plan (SIP). They focus on student learning skills and describe how teachers will help students develop those skills using high-quality instruction. The compacts can share strategies for parents to use at home and how they can volunteer or assist in the classroom. They also explain how teachers and parents will communicate together about student progress.
Below you will find School Compacts for each grade level that you may view or print.
