Title I

Jenkins Elementary is a Title I school. 

The goal of our Title I Program is to ensure every child is able to learn and perform at levels that meet or exceed the state academic standards. 

Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015, provides funding to school districts to help ensure that all children, particularly those who are most academically at-risk, meet challenging state academic standards.  Schools participating in the Title I program receive funds based on the percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price school meals.

Title I programs are designed to ensure:

• high standards for all students,
• increase quality instructional time,
• improve instruction through professional development,
• enhance family participation in the educational process,
• expand educational resources, and
• strengthen accountability.
