COMPENSATORY EDUCATION
(Title I)
Pursuant to federal law, school districts receiving Title I funds to provide educational services to students must do so in accordance with Title I of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. It is the Board of Education’s intent that Title I funds shall be used efficiently and effectively to benefit the academic opportunities and progress of students in School-wide or Targeted Assistance Programs.
Title I funds shall be used to provide educational services that are in addition to the regular services provided for district students. By adoption of this policy, the Board ensures equivalence among schools in teachers, administrators and auxiliary personnel and equivalence in the provision of curriculum materials and supplies.
A local educational agency may exclude State and local funds expended for:
a. language instruction educational programs; and
b. the excess costs of providing services to children with disabilities as determined by the local educational agency.
