Title I is...
Title I is the largest federal aid program for K-12 schools. The purpose is to ensure that all students have a fair, equal, and significant opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach, at a minimum, "proficiency" on challenging state academic standards and assessments. Title I programs provide financial assistance to local schools with a high percentage of children from low-income families. In addition to ensuring that every child receives a quality education, Title I programs place an emphasis on building relationships with our families.
