Title I Federal Grant Program
What is Title I?
Title 1 is the largest federally funded program for public schools. It is part of Every Student Succeeds Act but originated in 1965 by Lyndon B. Johnson. It was part of a larger set of bills that changed funding of school districts from solely the local level to partial funding from the national level. Title 1 funding provides educational funds to schools that demonstrate a high percentage of students from low-income families. The Title 1 federal funds enable schools to provide additional educational services to help students who are struggling academically. Funds are intended to supplement general education curriculum
Title 1 federal funds provide funding to schools based on the number of students enrolled who demonstrate need. Need is determined by the free and reduced lunch percentage of each school building within the district and other informative data. Districts can receive these funds through either targeted assistance programs or school-wide programs where 40% or more of the students are from families with low-income.
What is School-Wide Title I?
Brooklyn School receives Title funds for school-wide Title I programs. As school-wide programs the district may use Title 1 funds to improve student achievement throughout the entire school regardless of a student/families’ individual economic need. This enables all students to benefit from Title 1 support and services. It also ensures that all staff focus on improving educational programming for students in each building while paying careful attention to those from families with low income. School-wide funds are used to expand high-quality instruction, implement research-based interventions to improve academic performance and close achievement gaps, improve teacher quality and provide professional development to staff, and provide parent engagement activities.
Who Receives Title I Services?
All students can succeed with the right type of research-based intervention and additional instruction. Brooklyn School utilizes an assessment- based process to identify students needing additional help in reading. Scores from screening and benchmark assessments, as well as, teacher input ensure that students in need of additional assistance receive the support they need. Students showing the greatest educational need are prioritized to receive services first.

District Approved Applications
Please be aware that the District, either directly or through a technology provider, is electing to generally monitor all school-issued devices (as that term is defined by R.C. 3319.325). The monitoring will include the following features: screen monitoring while in-district, location tracking and student interactions with school-issued devices (e.g., keystrokes and web-browsing activity). The District generally monitors these features for the purpose of noncommercial education, such as instruction, technical support, and/or exam proctoring, and is necessary to comply with federal or state law and to participate in federal and state funding programs. Additionally, these features are generally monitored as a necessary precaution for preventing and/or responding to threats to life or safety. Finally, the District or its technology provider will generally access or monitor a school-issued device if it becomes aware that the device is missing or stolen or if such action is permitted under a judicial warrant.
