Title I Supplemental Educational Services
Overview
Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended recently as the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), provides funding to school districts with high numbers of children from low-income families. The added federal funding helps to ensure that all students are learning and meeting state-level academic standards.
Title I is important because it provides students significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, high-quality education that, in turn, helps to close educational achievement gaps.
