Title I Overview
The Derry Cooperative School District has two Title I Targeted Assistance elementary schools: Grinnell and Ernest P. Barka. Our Title I Program provides supplemental support services to Grinnell students in grades kindergarten through five who have been identified as having difficulty in reading and are at-risk for failing to meet state standards and to Grinnell and Ernest P. Barka students in Kindergarten through Grade five who have been identified as having difficulty in math and are at-risk for failing state standards. We identify these students through rank ordering systems using a variety of school-wide assessments. Our goal is to accelerate the reading and/or math progress of these students in order to help them catch up with their peers and experience success in their classrooms. We work to reinforce core skills and knowledge towards helping students have a strong, solid academic foundation through targeted short term interventions and family engagement.
