The Title I, Part A Program makes it possible to expand the basic educational programs schools and districts offer with services and interventions that support struggling learners. Title I, Part A is one of many programs governed by the Elementary and Secondary Education Act or ESEA. There are two kinds of programs that schools can fund through Title I, Part A — schoolwide and targeted assistance.

• Schoolwide means that all students—based on academic need—are eligible to receive the additional instruction this federal program will fund.
• Targeted assistance makes it possible to provide the same benefits but only to selected students based on academic need.

Cambria-Friesland Elementary School is a Schoolwide Title 1 school.

ESEA directs schools and districts to notify parents about the following key requirements of a Title I, Part A program.

Parents have the right to request and receive information about the qualifications of the educators who teach their children core subjects—reading, English language arts and mathematics. 

1. Whether or not the educator met state qualifications and certification requirements for the grade level and subject(s) they are teaching.
2. Whether or not the educator has and emergency or conditional certificate by which state qualifications were waived.
3. What undergraduate and/or graduate degree(s) the teacher holds, including graduate certificates and additional degrees, majors, and areas of concentration.
4. Whether or not a paraprofessional providing instruction has completed at least two years of study at an institution of higher education, obtained an associate's or higher degree, or met qualification standards through a ParaPro Assessment or approved apprenticeship program
5. Notification if your child’s teacher is not highly qualified should be received by parents and guardians IF their child has been assigned to or taught for more than four consecutive weeks by a teacher of a core academic subject who is not highly qualified.Parents or guardians will receive an individual report card that explains how well their child scored on any state assessment in reading, English language arts, and mathematics.
6. DPI issues ESSA Accountability Reports annually. These reports explain ESSA identifications and their calculation and also compare school and student group performance to that of other schools and student groups statewide. Public ESSA and district summary reports are available here.
