Title I

RSU #38 receives Title 1A funding in support of literacy and math interventions and reinforcement for students in grades K-5 in Mt. Vernon, Wayne, and Readfield elementary schools.  With this funding, we are able to support a team of professionals to work specifically with students in the areas of reading and math.  This team offers a broad spectrum of support for all students within our literacy and math programs.  The Title 1 team and all teachers at each elementary school work together to offer students the help they need to become successful readers and math thinkers. 

Our Literacy Specialist and Math Specialist offer support to classroom teachers and work closely with the administration to develop a range of supports for use in and out of the classrooms.  We have teachers who assist with whole class support as well as interventions for individual or small groups of students. Our Title IA specialists determine what additional support is most applicable to each student based on school wide, grade level, and individual classroom reading and math assessment results. Students may receive support in the classroom or in a different setting. The intervention can be short term and/or more intensive with students getting supplemental lessons up to five times a week.
