Title I, Part A is a formula grant program that provides financial assistance to school districts and schools with high numbers or high percentages of children from low-income families. Title I is the largest program supporting elementary and secondary education in the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).

The Title I, Part A program is intended to help ensure that all children meet challenging state academic standards, regardless of economic status. Title I is the government’s attempt to provide all children with the opportunity to receive a fair, equitable and high-quality education, and to close the achievement gap. 

These “supplemental” federal funds are used to:

• Accelerate instruction for struggling students,
• Provide professional-development for teachers, paraprofessionals, and administrators
• Hire certified personnel
• Provide additional resources – technology, personnel, materials, instructional programs, software
• Encourage parent and family involvement.

Kate Bell Elementary has a school-wide Title 1 program. All students are Title I students and are eligible for services through Title I. Bell qualifies as a Title I school because we are a campus with a low-income enrollment between 40%-100%.
