The program serves millions of children in elementary and secondary schools each year. Elliott Point is a Title I school. What every parent should know about Title I! (brochure)

  7. How Title I Works The federal government provides funding to states each year for Title I. The Florida Department of Education sends the money to the district. The school district identifies eligible schools and provides Title I funds. Elliott Point implements a schoolwide (K-5) program.

  8. Achievement Goals • The goal is to narrow the achievement gap between student groups by 50% by 2020. • Targets include participation rate and percent proficient in reading, writing, mathematics and graduation rates. • Schools are given a letter grade from A-F.

  9. Parent’s Rights • Be involved and request regular meetings to express your opinions and concerns; • Be provided information on your child’s level of achievement on assessments like FSA in reading/language arts, mathematics, and science; • Request and receive information on the qualifications of your child’s teacher; and • Be informed if your child is taught by an inexperienced qualified teacher for four or more consecutive weeks.

  10.
