Title I

Title 1 Program Overview

The purpose of Title I, Part A is to help ensure that all children meet challenging state academic standards, regardless of economic status. Title I is the government's attempt to provide all children with the opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education, and to close the achievement gap.

ESSA divides Title I into five parts:

  • Improving Basic Programs Operated by Local Education Agencies (LEAs)
  • State Assessment Grants
  • Education of Migrant Children
  • Prevention & Intervention Programs for Children and Youth Who are Neglected, Delinquent, or At-Risk
  • Flexibility for Equitable Per-Pupil Funding
