Title I funds are funds from the Federal Government that provides grants to school districts which then allocate funds to individual Title I schools based on the number of students eligible for free and reduced school meals.
These funds support state and local efforts to provide technical assistance (based on scientifically based research) to school staff and improve schools identified as needing improvement based on progress.
At VGES we use our funds in three ways, we pay for staff, online support materials, and in class supplemental aids. We also have parental engagement funds that are used to help with communications sent home to parents, as well as resources that we can share with families to help them with education at home.
