Title I funds are used to improve outcomes for low-achieving students through activities and strategies identified in a school’s needs assessment and articulated in the school’s comprehensive schoolwide plan.
Title I funding is used primarily for additional staffing to implement interventions or provide instructional support, but can also pay for during- and beyond-school-day tutoring, additional curricular materials and professional development, family engagement and other supplemental resources. Schools use most of these funds to hire additional staff to provide interventionist positions, smaller class sizes and co-teaching opportunities.
Additionally, Title I funding supports Students in Temporary Housing with supplemental educational services.
