Title I Programs Stakeholder Meeting

Announcement - June 9, 2023:

The Federal Programs Stakeholder Meeting was held on May 25, 2023.  During this meeting, the 2022-2023 Title I plan, set asides, and goals for the upcoming year were discussed as well as goals and set asides for Title II and IV funding.  Many were unable to attend the meeting so we recorded the meeting and would like to make it available for you to review.  We would like to give you an opportunity to listen to the recording and provide input through our survey.

We invite you to review the information and share any concerns about the Title I or other federal programs with the administration for your school. The survey link is located at the end of this announcement.

The agenda for the meeting included discussions on the projected allocations, district set-asides, parent / family engagement policies, and identify goals for the upcoming year. 

Thank you for your input to improve the instructional programs in our schools.  Your partnership with our Title I schools will help our students to be successful.

Title I NC and No Child Left Behind

  • Signed into law Jan. 8, 2002

  • Tremendous impact on North Carolina's public schools

  • Closing achievement gaps

  • Holding schools accountable for all students

  • Highly qualified teachers

  • Has been integrated with the ABCs

No Child Left Behind (NCLB), signed into federal law by President George W. Bush in 2002, is having a tremendous impact on North Carolina schools, especially our Title I schools. The legislation represents the largest ever expansion of involvement in K-12 education by the federal government. No Child Left Behind is the newly-revised version of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, first enacted in 1965 and last reauthorized in 1994. The new law is in effect now through 2007, when it will be up for reauthorization. The law was designed around the idea that not all students are making the academic progress they need to make in order to become successful adults. The law sets high standards for all students in all public schools. Key requirements of the new law are closing achievement gaps; holding schools accountable for all students performing at a high level; and having a highly qualified teacher in every classroom. The State Board of Education is combining components of the federal act with the ABCs so we will have one accountability model. This model is in effect for the current school year.
