Title I (Elementary and Secondary Education Act)

Title I is a provision of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act designed to provide federal funding to schools with a high percentage of low-income students. The goal is to ensure that all children have a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. Schools receiving Title I funds must develop plans to improve educational outcomes, offering additional resources like tutoring, after-school programs, and teacher training. This initiative aims to close the achievement gap between disadvantaged students and their peers, helping to support their academic success and overall development.
