Title I<br />

As the largest federal program supporting elementary and secondary education, Title I<br />

of the NCLB Act is intended to help ensure that all children have the opportunity to<br />

obtain a high-quality education and to reach proficiency on challenging state academic<br />

standards and assessments. Title I provides flexible funding that may be used to<br />

provide additional instructional staff, professional development, extended-time<br />

programs, and other strategies for raising student achievement in high-poverty schools.<br />

The following information describes some of these programs. Other Title I programs are<br />

included in the Family Involvement and English Learners sections.<br />

Education of Migratory Children<br />

The Migrant, Indian, and International Education Office plans, implements, and<br />

are expected to meet. The program is supported by federal and state laws. Programs<br />

• Binational Education: Implements an international program between Mexico and<br />

the United States<br />

• Mini-Corps: Provides tutoring to migratory students<br />
