Purpose
The purpose of the Title I Overview is to inform local districts, schools, and parents about the requirements of the Title I Program and the correlation with the elements of the Categorical Program Monitoring (CPM) process reviewed by the California Department of Education (CDE). A reference has been made on the bottom right hand corner of each page when applicable.
CPM refers to a legal accountability process used by the CDE to validate compliance with various program requirements and outcomes of the Title I program.
Title I requirements are embedded within the following CPM instruments:
Cross Programs – CP Compensatory Education – CEProgram Improvement – PI

Purpose of No Child Left Behind
“…is to ensure that all children have a fair, equal, and significant opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach, at a minimum, proficiency on challenging state academic achievement standards and state academic assessments”
Federal and State Education Programs Branch
5
Purpose of Title I
Title I Part A is a federal program providing supplemental resources to Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) i.e., school districts, assisting students in poverty to meet challenging state academic standards.
In order to access these funds, schools must have a poverty threshold of at least 40% based on free and reduced lunch applications and/or Calworks.
Schools that rank into Title I deliver supplemental services through a targeted assistance (TAS) program or a schoolwide program (SWP) model.
Federal and State Education Programs Branch

Supplemental Funds
Supplemental funds are over and above the general revenue funds the districts and schools receive to support the base program.
They are funds which are granted to districts and to schools for specific program purposes and must be used only to support and enhance the district’s and school’s regular program.
Supplemental funds may not be used to replace or supplant the funds and programs the district provides the schools.

ADEQUATE YEARLY PROGRESS
The District uses results from statewide testing and other available indicators to determine annually whether schools funded by Title I, Part A are making adequate yearly progress (AYP) measured through the following four indicators:
● Participation Rate ● Percent Proficient*—Annual Measurable Objectives
(AMOs)● Academic Performance Index – API ● Graduation Rate (High Schools only)
*California Standards Test, California High School Exit Exam, California Alternate Performance Assessment

Schoolwide Programs Flexibility
Provide a comprehensive school plan to upgrade all the instruction in a high-poverty school, without distinguishing between eligible and ineligible children.
The school plan will include: ■ Comprehensive needs assessment■ Scientifically-based instructional methods■ Strategies to address all students■ Use of resources and implementation

Each SWP school is required to collaboratively develop and approve the SPSA with the School Site Council (SSC) based on the advice from appropriate school advisory committees. The SPSA must be tied to budgets reflecting student needs.

Title I SWP andParental Involvement
20
Elements of Parental Involvement
LAUSD adopted a Districtwide Policy for parents. This Policy should be annually distributed to parents. The District’s annual Parent Student Handbook also provides parents with information on parental involvement and NCLB mandates.
Each Title I, Part A funded school must develop, jointly with parents of children receiving Title I services, a written school parental involvement policy that describes how the school will carry out the parental involvement requirements in No Child Left Behind, Section 1118. The requirements consist of four components:
Involvement [of parents in the policy] School-Parent Compact Building Capacity for Involvement Accessibility [for parents]

Parental Involvement Policy
Each Title I, Part A funded school must notify parents of its written parent involvement policy in an understandable and uniform format in a language the parents can understand. The policy must also be made available to the local community.
Each Title I, Part A funded school must involve parents by convening an annual meeting to inform parents of the following:
the school’s participation in the Title I, Part A program the requirements of Title I, Part A the rights of parents to be involved
Parents must be involved in an organized, ongoing, and timely way in the planning, review and improvement of the school’s Title I program.

the curriculum in use at the school the forms of academic assessment used to measure student
progress, and the proficiency levels students are expected to meet
