Title 1

Title I District Information

Oak is receiving Title I Government funding for the next 4 years.
Title I funding is money set aside by the federal government to assist high poverty schools.
We are considered a Title I School, because Bartlett City Schools is now considered a Title I district- (along with all the other municipalities and Shelby County Schools).
The percentage of high poverty students in Shelby County qualified all districts in the county to receive these funds.
$$ This is great for us $$
- We will be able to use the funding to purchase technology, along with the instructional software/ curriculum and resources to make the most of the technology purchases.
- We will also be able to send our teachers to professional development workshops and seminars.
- We will also be able to offer parent classes and support in addition to what we have already been doing in the past.
Because of this, new staffing was needed to help implement and monitor the Title I process in the building. Nelson has stepped into this role as the Title I Instructional Facilitator. She will be stepping out of the classroom into an office and will be shared between Oak and Bon Lin Elementary.
You can call/ email Mrs. Nelson if you have any questions.
