  1. What is Title I? • Title I is a federally funded program which allows students, who are experiencing academic difficulty, to receive extra help and individual attention during the school day with no extra cost to the parents.

  2. How Title 1 works • The federal government provides funding to school districts each year. • School districts identify schools that are eligible to receive funds.

  3. The Title I school works to: • identify students most in need of educational help • set goals for improvement • measure student progress • develop programs that add to regular classroom instruction • involve parents in all aspects of the program

  4. Targeted Programs • In a Targeted Title I Program all students within the school are given multiple assessments. These test results then determine which students require additional support and are ranked in order of need. The students who need the most help are put on the list first.

  5. School-Wide programs • Schools can qualify for school-wide Title I programs where the funds and resources can benefit all students attending that school. Often, in these schools, the Title I teachers go into the regular classroom or work with flexible groups of students as the need arises. • Northmoor is a Title I school-wide program.
