Title I, Part A: Improving the Academic Achievement of the Disadvantaged

Title I, Part A, provides local educational agencies (LEA) resources that help children gain a high-quality education and the skills to master the Florida BEST Standards. Title I provides additional resources to schools with economically disadvantaged students. These resources provide additional teachers, professional development, extra time for teaching, parent involvement activities, and other activities designed to raise student achievement. Two models are used in Title I schools to provide these services. Schoolwide reform models provide all students with access to services. Targeted assistance models provide services to select students in Title I schools.
