What is Title I Reading?
Title I Reading is a Federally Funded Program from the Stevens Act, designed to improve the academic achievement of children.

Goals of the Title I School:
- Improve student performance in reading to meet challenging common core standards.
- Provide additional reading resources to support the regular classroom instruction.
- Encourage a school-family partnership.
- Communicate with parents on student progress.
- Provide all children the opportunity to achieve success across the curriculum.
