The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) was signed by President Obama on December 10, 2015. It provided good news for our nation’s schools. This bipartisan measure reauthorized the fifty-year-old Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), the nation’s national education law and represents a longstanding commitment to equal opportunity for all students.
The purpose of Title I, Part A is to help local educational agencies (LEAs) improve teaching and learning in high-poverty schools and help children failing or most at risk of failing to meet challenging state academic standards.
This purpose is accomplished by such efforts as follows:
providing an enriched and accelerated educational program;
promoting schoolwide reform through schoolwide programs or through additional services that increase the amount and quality of instructional time;
significantly upgrading the quality of instruction by providing staff in participating schools with substantial opportunities for professional development; and
affording parents meaningful opportunities to participate in the education of their children at home and at school.
Title I Schools
Six of our six schools in Greeneville City qualify to be Title I schools.
These schools Are:
