Title 1
What is Title I?
Title I, Part A (Title I) is a federal program which began in 1965, under President L.B. Johnson. Title I provides financial assistance to districts 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. Title I funds are distributed in Blaine County Schools based upon the number of students receiving free and reduced lunch.
Title I schools can operate either as Targeted Assistance or Schoolwide. As targeted assistance, the school can only provide service to specific students as identified through a ranking system. As a schoolwide program, all students and staff are considered Title I and there is no qualifying criteria to receive support.
