Title 1, of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, is the largest federally funded educational program. This program, authorized by Congress, provides additional funding to school districts to assist schools with the highest concentration of student poverty. This is to help schools meet the educational needs and goals of their students. Schools receive Title 1 funds based on the number of students qualifying for free or reduced meals.

McLees Elementary School Title 1 Funding Initiatives
For the 2026-2027 school year, McLees will be using Title One funds for a variety of needs based upon the data collected from staff and parents at the end of the 2025-2026 school year. An additional Certified Interventionist, as well as a Math Coach/Title 1 Facilitator will be funded using Title 1 funds. A part time Behavior/Academic Interventionist will also be staffed using Title 1 funds. Parent engagement opportunities such as Literacy Night, Math Night, and grade level Morning STEAM events will be funded using Title 1 funds.
Title 1 planning occurs throughout each school year. As part of the planning, a needs assessment survey is distributed to all parents and teachers to provide an evaluation of the positions, items, and services provided with Title I funds. This will be done later in the 2026-2027 school year to plan for the next school year.
