FEDERAL PROGRAMS

2 Title I Schools Schools are classified as Title I when they have more than 75% of children from low income families. This percentage is determined by calculating the percentage of economically disadvantaged students based on the school Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) data and/or Free/Reduced Lunch meals data. Once the 75% rule is applied, grade span groupings can be used to include additional schools. Duval County Public Schools included: Elementary schools with a percentage above 55%, Middle schools with a percentage above 71%, and High Schools with a percentage above 42%. FEDERAL PROGRAMS

3 Title I School Allocations A formula is used to determine the Title I School Allocation. Information to determine the allocation includes: Total Enrollment of students ages 5-17 Number of children from low income families CEP or Free/Reduced Lunch The per pupil allocation (PPA) for the 2015-16 school year is $445 for schools with a higher National School Lunch Program Count and $345 for schools with lower count. FEDERAL PROGRAMS

4 Title I School Allocation Example – CEP School FEDERAL PROGRAMS School Enrollment 500 ED Student Count 297 Percentage ED Students 475/500 / 95% NSLP Count 297 x 1.6 x 475 CEP Multiplier 1.6 District Per Pupil Allocation $445 or $345 Allocation 475 x 345 x $163,875 1234 5 67 23 4 4 1 4 6 Note: This number cant exceed the school enrollment. If this is a Free/Reduced lunch school, the multiplier is not used and the ED student count is equal to the NSLP Count. Note: The PPA is determined by the district in accordance to rank and serve procedures. Any school with a % of ED students under 100% receives $345 (CEP causes many schools to go over 100% for rank and serve)

5 Title I School Allocations Title I school allocations vary from year to year. Reasons include: Amount of the district allocation Number of Title I schools (Public, Public Charter, Private) Amount of the Per Pupil Allocations School Enrollment FEDERAL PROGRAMS

6 Title I Schools The district implements Title I schoolwide programs and districtwide programs. Schoolwide Programs - have flexibility in using Title I funds to upgrade the operation of the entire school. Districtwide Programs - benefit all of the Title I schools or schools with specific criteria for targeted improvement based on the district needs assessment.  Cultural STEAM Experiences  Graduation Coaches  City Year Mentors  Content Area Specialists FEDERAL PROGRAMS
