What is Title 1?
Title 1 is a federally funded program available to schools with a high percentage of students eligible for free and reduced price lunch. These funds are above and beyond the district funds given to schools and are to be used to enhance student achievement. In Seminole County, Title 1 serves several public and private elementary and middle schools. All staff at Title 1 schools are required to be highly qualified. Parents may request information regarding the professional qualifications of teachers and staff who work with their child.

What is the "Parents' Right to Know"?
Districts that receive Title I funds must provide to parents of each child attending a Title I school:
- Information about their child’s level of academic achievement and growth as measured by state assessments
- Timely notification when their child is taught for 4 or more consecutive weeks by a teacher who has not met state certification or licensure requirements at the grade level and subject area in which the teacher has been assigned
- Information on assessments required by the state or district, including subject/purpose of each assessment, source of the requirement, and where possible, the time needed to complete the assessment and when/how results will be made available to parents
- Information about state and district policies pertaining to participating in required assessments
Parents of students attending a Title I school may request to know:
- Whether their child’s teacher meets certification requirements for the grade and subject area they teach; the degree/major of the teacher, and if the teacher is teaching under a provisional status
- If their child receives services from a paraprofessional and if so, the paraprofessional’s qualifications
