TITLE 1 SERVICES

Three Rivers Local School District

Title I  programs use federal funds to direct services to specific at-risk students above and beyond those services provided with regular state and local resources. The purpose of this funding is to provide supplemental funding to economically disadvantaged districts for improving educational outcomes for students who are failing, or at risk of failing, to meet State standards.  At Three Rivers, federal funds are used for additional reading and math instruction in grades K-6. Highly qualified teachers and educational assistants work with students in small groups to provide additional reading and math supports.  

Parents/Guardians have the right to know about the teaching qualifications of your child’s classroom teacher in a school receiving Title I funds. The federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires that any school district receiving Title I funds must notify parents of each student attending any school receiving Title I funds that they may request, and the district will provide the parents on request (and in a timely manner), information regarding the professional qualifications of the student's classroom teachers, including at a minimum, the following:
I. Whether the teacher has met State qualification and licensing criteria for the grade
levels and subject areas in which the teacher provides instruction;
 
II. Whether the teacher is teaching under emergency or other provisional status through
which State qualification or licensing criteria have been waived; and
 
III. Whether the teacher is teaching in the field of discipline of the certification of the
teacher;
 
IV. Whether your child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their
qualifications.
 
V. You have the right to know that you may request, and the local educational agency will provide the parents on request (and in a timely manner), information regarding any State or local educational agency policy regarding student participation in any assessments mandated by section 1111(b)(2) and by the State or local educational agency, which shall include a policy, procedure, or parental right to opt the child out of such assessment, where applicable.
