What is Title I-A?
The Every Student Succeeds Act, signed by President Barack Obama in 2015, emphasizes high academic standards for all children. Under this legislation, Congress authorized federal funding for Title I-A schools. Title I-A focuses on helping every student meet the same high standards expected of all children. The method is enrichment and acceleration, not remediation.
Kids Unlimited Academy is a Title I-A school, where federal funds are provided to increase student learning. Due to our qualifying status as “schoolwide,” all students are eligible for services. Our highly qualified Title I-A staff are dedicated to providing effective instruction that is research-based, timely and specific to student needs.
The Title I-A staff provides support to students struggling to achieve the state learning standards in reading and math. The staff may work in a classroom with a group of students or pull students out of the classroom.
Title I-A programs have teachers and paraprofessionals to provide extended learning time in literacy and math. This extended time may be provided during school, before or after the school day.
