Schoolwide Programs
Schools with more than forty percent of students receiving free and reduced-price lunches are eligible to become schoolwide programs. School-wide schools use Title I funds to enhance the educational program for all students attending the school. The administration and staff of a school-wide program develop a plan based on identified needs within the school. The Title I school plan includes research-based practices for improving student achievement for all students.
