Goals of Title 1

How are decisions made to spend Title 1 money

The campus uses data results from the following resources to set the academic goals of the school year in the areas of Math, Science, Reading, and Writing:

– STAAR Results– End of the Year reading and math assessments– Universal Screener Data

Index 1: Student Achievement

Most like TAKS, measures performance, calculated for all subjects tested (Reading, Math, Writing (4), Science (5)). This year our performance standard was measured at level 2, phase 1 for the

following groups: 7 races (ALL students, AA, AI, Asian, Hispanic, Pacific Islander, White and 2 or more races, and ELL, SPED, and EcoDis).
