The Title I Program…

• Is the largest federal assistance program for schools.
• Provides support to students who are at risk of not meeting the State’s academic standards.
• Determines funding by the number of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
• Supports parents/families by offering activities and training opportunities to increase engagement in their children’s education.

Two types of Title I programs:

• Targeted Assistance - No schools in GCPS participate in TAS (Targeted Assistance School Program)
• Schoolwide - 68 schools participate in GCPS

Schoolwide Program

• All students at the school benefit from Title I funds.
• Materials, equipment, technology, professional development, extended learning time, salaries of some teachers, and the Parent Center are some of the possible items funded through Title I
