ESSA / Title I Information

Title I Information at WPCSD

The purpose of Title I is to provide all children with a significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, high quality education, and to close educational achievement gaps. The following schools in White Plains are in receipt of Title I School Wide Program funding:

The School Wide Plans (SWPs) linked above are currently under review by stakeholder committees at each respective school. Updated plans will be posted in Spring 2022.

Each school that is in receipt of Title I funding develops a School Wide Plan to improve/upgrade the entire educational program, and all students may benefit from the use of Title I funds. Activities must be part of the schoolwide plan and support an identified academic need through the school’s comprehensive needs assessment. In addition to supplemental services, schoolwide schools may provide elective courses to prepare or support low-achieving students to take advanced courses, preschool enrichment programs, and programs to improve outcomes for students with disabilities and English learners.
