Parental Involvement:
The participation of parents in regular, two-way, and meaningful communication involving student academic learning and other school activities.
Students with involved parents :• Earn higher grades and test scores • Enroll in higher-level programs• Are promoted and earn credits• Adapt well to school and attend regularly • Have better social skills and behavior • Graduate and go on to higher education.
What Is No Child Left Behind?· Funding: Gives school districts more money
(supplement, not supplant)
· Flexibility: More control to use resources where they are needed most
· Accountability: Holds schools and districts accountable for results. Requires states to test reading and math every year in grades 3 – 8 / once in high school
· Teacher Quality: Funding to help teachers become better teachers
· Scientific Research: To guide classroom practice
EXPLANATION OF TITLESTitle I, Part A: Improving Basic Programs Operated by Local Education Agencies

TITLE I(At-Risk)
· Allocations are based on the number of low-income students. The proportion of economically disadvantage students in a school determines the amount of funds that may go to a school.
· Services are directed to those students who are the lowest achieving or at the highest risk for school failure.
· Participation of Non-Public Schools
Targeted Assistance School
• Direct services to specific students in eligible schools who are identified as failing, or most at-risk of failing, to meet the state’s content and student performance standards.
ADEQUATE YEARLY PROGRESS(The dedication of $$)
• Definition: A method of determining the progress of student achievement in each school district and school to measure the yearly incremental progress of schools in reaching 100% proficiency by the 2013 – 2014 school year.
• Accountability applies for all student sub-groups including: economically disadvantaged, students with disabilities, limited English proficiency, race and ethnic groups
• Comprehensive Needs Assessment: Enable schools to identify their strengths and weaknesses so they can specify priority problems and plan activities to help improve student achievement and meet state academic standards.
TITLE IIAPurpose: To increase student academic achievement through strategies such as improving teacher and principal quality, and increasing the number of highly qualified teachers in the classroom.
· Highly Qualified Teachers (100%)
· Mentoring (Peer Coaching)
· Integration of technology into curriculum
· Allocate funds for professional development (focus on AYP)
All professional development: must be grounded in
scientifically based research
· Scientifically Based Research Programs:The term scientifically based involves the application of rigorous, systematic, and objective procedures to obtain reliable and valid knowledge relevant to education activities and programs.
TITLE II D·Funds for educational technology are required to be used to provide ongoing, sustained, intensive high-quality professional development
· District must provide professional development in the integration of advanced technologies, including emerging technologies into curricula and
instruction and in using those technologies to create new learning environments

· Prevent the illegal use of alcohol, tobacco, and drugs
Data Recording Procedures Changed
• Students enrolled less than one year count in the aggregate data collection (after July 1st)
• “VOIDS” now count in the data collection
AYPAdequate Yearly Progress
• The AYP benchmarks for grades 3, 4, and 5 have been re-adjusted again. (Two years in a row). The raw cut score changed back to 200.
• Can not compare tests from year to year in grades 3 – 5 since 2007
• Grades 3 – 5 scores re-issued (August)
• AYP is identified by the following:– Participation, Total Population, Economically Disadvantaged, Ethnic Sub-Groups, LEP,
Students with Disabilities
• Sub-groups with 40 or more students count.
• 40 Possible Indicators to achieve AYP

SES Services• Last year for the first time ever we spent all but $2,000 of our required federal dollars
on SES instruction ($45,000).
• 42 students benefitted from SES instruction by a state recommended SES provider.
• If we didn’t spend the funds, the funds would have had to be returned to NJDOE.
• Parents are given a list of state recommended SES providers and they choose. Each student at the Middle School receiving free lunch is offered SES instruction.
• 1:5 students in West Deptford receives free or reduced lunch (DISTRICT AVERAGE = 20.9% / Middle School 23.5%)
• First time ever – Economically disadvantaged was identified as a sub-group at the Middle School level to not make AYP.
