Enhancing Education Through Title I Funding

Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 provides additional funding to schools to support student learning opportunities, ensure quality education for all students, and increase family engagement. These funds are used for supplemental instruction, hiring additional teachers, providing extra programs, and purchasing resources. Additionally, Title I funds support parent/family engagement activities, such as orientations, open houses, and parent group meetings. Evidence of impact shows improvements in student proficiency and growth rates on NYS assessments.
