SHAEC Title 1

Title 1:

Title I is a 100% Federally funded supplemental education program that provides financial assistance to local educational agencies to improve the academic achievement of educationally at risk students. The goal of Title 1 is to provide additional intervention services to assist and support students struggling to achieve academic growth. Title I programs are designed to help children meet the state content and performance standards in reading, language arts, and mathematics.

The Schuylkill Haven Elementary Center is a Title I Targeted Assisted School. Targeted Assisted means that we identify and target students who are having difficulty in reading and/or math for Title I services. We identify students based on deficit areas that are determined through a variety of criteria such as Acadience Reading/Math assessments, Benchmark Assessments, Curriculum-based assessments, Hero Success Team Recommendations.
