16 These funds provide supplemental services to improve student achievement in pre-kindergarten through grade 4. Students who are in need of extra help to reach grade level academic standards are provided assistance by federally funded, highly qualified teachers and highly qualified instructional assistants. Title I funds also provide additional professional development and professional materials for teachers, student materials and supplies, technology hardware and software for students and teachers, tutoring, parent involvement activities and materials, and assistance to homeless students.

17 Five percent (5%) of the total Title I budget has been set aside to meet the requirement for professional development activities. Funds were set aside for student welfare (homeless students) as required by Title I guidelines. Districts that receive over $500, in Title I allocations must designate 1% for parent involvement activities. Of this year s allocation ($623,479.90) 95% of the 1% must be placed in the building budgets. The district exceeded the required set aside amount placing nearly 2% in parent involvement.
