Title I-A
5 months ago
The purpose of Title I-A is to provide all children
significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality
education, and to close educational achievement gaps.
School Wide Program
Schoolwide programs are able to consolidate its federal,
state, and local funds to upgrade the entire educational program. Though the
school is not required to identify certain children as being eligible for
services or to provide certain students with any specific supplemental
benefits, the focus of the program must be on addressing the needs of
low-achieving children and those at risk of not meeting state student academic
achievement standards. Any school with a poverty average of at least 40% may
operate a Schoolwide Program.
There are three required components of a schoolwide program
that are essential to effective implementation: conducting a comprehensive
needs assessment, preparing a comprehensive schoolwide plan, and annually
reviewing and revising, as necessary, the schoolwide plan.
Juneau Title I-A
Schools
Juneau School District's schoolwide programs will ensure
that all low-achieving students in all subgroups, including economically disadvantaged
students, racial/ethnic subgroups, English learners, students with
disabilities, migratory children, and homeless students, are receiving
assistance to increase their level of achievement.
The schoolwide Title I programs are designed to increase
student achievement, using the Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS)/RTI as
the basis for the program design. Juneau has implemented the MTSS model at the
Title I elementary schools as well as the Professional Learning Community
model. The models focus on all low-achieving students receiving assistance to
increase their level of achievement. Title I school teaching staff meet
regularly throughout the school year through data meetings to analyze student
data, including progress monitoring data, and plan for timely and appropriate
interventions. This data review, along with PLC time where staff are
considering students' progress towards standards, allows collective discussion
and sharing of teaching strategies to engage struggling students or subgroups.
Based on collective school, student, and community review,
all Title I-A schools develop multiyear goals and plans with action steps
allowing academic progress to be monitored.
