Title I
What is Title I?
Taylor Jr. High receives additional supplemental funds through a Title I grant from the federal government to provide extra supplementary services for all of our students. Your Children will benefit directly or indirectly from this extra help. At Taylor Jr. High these funds, along with other federal resources, will be consolidated to support school-wide positive changes.
Funds can be used to:
Hire highly qualified instructional personnel to assist teachers within the classrooms
Provide training for staff and teachers
Provide supplemental instructional materials and technology
Ensure high-quality School wide Programs
Increase parent involvement participation
We are pleased to have these funds to provide high quality instruction for all children.
Parents Rights to Know

Whether the teacher is teaching under emergency or other provisional status through which State qualification or licensing criteria has been waived.
The baccalaureate degree major of the teacher and any other graduate certification or degree held by the teacher, and the field of discipline of the certification or degree.
Whether the child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications.
