Understanding Title I, Part A (ESSA)

Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) of 2015, is designed to enhance educational resources for students in high-poverty schools.

This funding stream provides school systems (previously referred to as LEAs) with supplemental resources to elevate the quality of basic educational programs and help students from low-income families achieve proficiency on challenging state assessments.

Title I, Part A resources are implemented through one of two evidence-based models:

  • Schoolwide Program (SWP): Focuses on upgrading the entire educational program of the school.

  • Targeted Assistance Program (TAP): Provides supplementary instruction only to identified students who are most at risk of not meeting state academic standards.

Both models strictly rely on evidence-based methods and instructional strategies to drive student success.
