ABOUT TITLE I

 In 1965, President Johnson set the nation on a course to ensure equity for all by increasing access to a basic education. This had been denied to many living in poverty.  Now fifty years later, with ever increasing needs and demands for an educated citizenry, we continue to build toward that goal. Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) provides resources to schools to enable students to reach proficiency as determined by the assessment of state standards in reading and math.
We currently have Student, Teacher and Parent Openings for our advisory committees. We need your support. If you are interested in participating, please join us for our upcoming SSC/ELAC Orientation. For more information, please contact Ms. Monroe (Title 1 Coordinator) [email protected]
