* test scores,
* and teacher and reading specialist recommendation.

When do students receive Title I support?
Students receive supplementary instruction in reading or math for about a half an hour four days a week. The schedules for Title I support are created in coordination with the classroom teachers.
Where are students tutored?
Students are supported in both the classrooms and the Title I Room.
What is taught?
The goal of the Kearsarge School District Title I Program is to support classroom success for students. Title I instruction is carefully coordinated with classroom teachers. It supplements classroom instruction in ways that strengthen student performance and understanding of the classroom curricula. All of the district's Title I interventionists and teachers have bachelor's degrees or beyond and have received current training in literacy and numeracy instruction.
