Information About Title I

Title I-A is intended to help ensure that all children have the opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach proficiency on challenging state academic standards and assessments.

Title I-A targets these resources to the districts and schools where the needs are greatest.

Title I-A provides flexible funding that may be used to provide additional instructional staff, professional development, extended-time programs, and other strategies for raising student achievement in high-poverty schools. The program focuses on promoting schoolwide reform in high-poverty schools and ensuring students' access to scientifically based instructional strategies and challenging academic content. Title I-A provisions provide a mechanism for holding states, school districts, and schools accountable for improving the academic achievement of all students and turning around low-performing schools, while providing alternatives to students in such schools to enable those students to receive a high-quality education.

Schoolwide

NOTICE (October 1, 2009):
The Idaho Department of Education is in the midst of a transition to a new planning process for schools that wish to become Schoolwide Title I models. Those schools that have progressed through most of the previous Schoolwide Action Plan Handbook (dated October 2007) may continue to do so, if they so desire. However, for any school that is entering the Schoolwide planning process during the 2009-2010 school year, please contact Steve Underwood at (208) 332-6922 with any questions. A guidance document that describes the new planning process will be posted by November, 2009.
