  4. Even though each student receives the same basic services, Walkerville Public Schools is able to offer much more through other State and Federal Programs. Each student’s cake is decorated differently, depending on individual needs and programs he or she qualifies for.

  5. What are the extra toppings? • In Elementary and Middle School the “frosting on the cake” comes from Schoolwide Title I services. • Title I provides additional funding in order provide services to meet the needs of students. • One determining factor for a school to qualify for Schoolwide Title I services is a very high free and reduced lunch rate.
