Parent Advisory Committee PAC

What is a Title I Grant?

The purpose of Title I is to provide all children a significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education, and to close educational achievement gaps.

How do schools receive these funds?

Schools must have a high level of poverty. Schools with a percentage of at least 40% are eligible for a schoolwide program.

Why do schools receive these funds?

Title I funds support students who are low achieving or at most risk of falling behind.

What are the goals of the funds?

• Increase academic achievement
• Provide direct instructional support to students
• Provide professional development to teachers
• Promote parent education and involvement

Parents have the following rights to be involved:

• Ask for meetings and training
• Make suggestions for spending Title I parent and family engagement funds
• Review the school's achievement data
• Upon request of parents, a school must provide opportunities for parents to formulate suggestions and to participate, as appropriate, in decisions about the education of their children
• If you have questions of concerns relating to your child's performance in school or other issues, please contact the school.
