Title I
Title I, Part A (Title I) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as
amended (ESEA) provides financial assistance to local educational agencies
(LEAs) and schools with high numbers or high percentages of children from
low-income families to help ensure that all children meet challenging state
academic standards. Federal funds are currently allocated through four statutory
formulas that are based primarily on census poverty estimates and the cost of
education in each state.
Title I is designed to help students served by the program to achieve proficiency
on challenging State academic achievement standards. Hancock Place
Elementary has been identified as a Title I school. We provide instructional
services to the entire school through the schoolwide program.
