Our WIG!
Oregon Trail is a Title I School.
What does that mean?
The purpose of Title I “is to ensure that all children have a fair, equal, and significant opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach, at a minimum, proficiency on challenging State academic achievement standards and State Academic Assessments.” (Title I, Sec. 1001)
Some of our major responsibilities in Title I include:
· Assuring that assessments, teacher preparation and training, and instruction are aligned with our State’s academic standards;
· Meeting the educational needs of low achieving children;
· Focusing on closing the achievement gap to those children with the greatest needs;
· Providing parents with opportunities to be involved in meaningful ways in the education of their children;
· Improving the academic achievement of all students.
