Title I

Baggaley Elementary School and Latrobe Elementary School are Schoolwide Title I buildings.  A schoolwide program is a comprehensive reform strategy designed to upgrade the entire educational program in a Title I building. The primary goal of a Schoolwide Title I building is to ensure that all students, particularly those who are low achieving, demonstrate proficient and advanced levels of achievement on State academic standards.

 

The emphasis of a schoolwide program is on serving all students, improving all structures that support student learning, and combining all resources, as allowed, to achieve a common goal.  Schoolwide programs maximize the impact of Title I.

 

Our schoolwide plan was developed with the help of parents, teachers, and administrators.  The schoolwide plan is evaluated annually to determine whether the academic achievement of all students has improved, particularly the low achieving students.

 

As a schoolwide building, the staff is looking at all students’ assessment data regularly.  Any student displaying a deficit in any reading area will receive addition support to help that student become proficient. The support offered will be very flexible.

 

As a Title I Schoolwide building, all students are considered Title I students and all teachers are considered Title I teachers.  Materials purchased with federal dollars can be used throughout the building for all students and all teachers.  Your student will be able to receive additional support from all staff members.

 

Because all students are Title I students, all parents are encouraged to become involved as Title I parents.  Parent Involvement is a vital piece of the Title I program.  Parent workshops/meetings are offered to support parents and their students.  All parents are invited to participate! 
 
As part of the Title I program’s federally required documentation, all Title I families will be asked to review the compact.  The compact is a promise that the school, the parents, and the student will all work toward helping the student become a proficient reader.  You have access to the District Parent Involvement Policy as well as the building Parent Involvement policy.  It can be found on the District website under Title I.
