Title 1 School Parent Compact

What is the purpose of Title I?

The purpose of Title I, Part A of Public Law 107-110, is to enable schools to provide opportunities for children served to acquire the knowledge and skills contained in the challenging state content standards and to meet the challenging state performance standards developed for all children.

This purpose is accomplished by such efforts as

• providing an enriched and accelerated educational program;
• promoting schoolwide reform through schoolwide programs or through additional services that increase the amount and quality of instructional time;
• significantly upgrading the quality of instruction by providing staff in participating schools with substantial opportunities for professional development; and
• affording parents meaningful opportunities to participate in the education of their children at home and at school.

For more information on Title I programs visit the South Carolina Department of Education’s website at www.ed.sc.gov or the United States Department of Education’s website www.ed.gov.

Please feel free to review the 2019-2020 Title I schoolwide plan located in the Title I binder in the front office.
