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.
