The Title I program provides supplementary resources to support instruction in reading, writing, mathematics and helps provide an enriched and accelerated curriculum. The goal of Title I is to assist in providing a high quality education for every child. This program provides extra assistance and instruction to students who need it most. Title I resources are directed to school attendance areas with high poverty levels.
