Schoolwide Program All Palm Beach County Title I schools are schoolwide programs Serve all students in the school, but require special focus for lowest achieving students All staff, resources and classes are part of the overall schoolwide program 5

Schoolwide Plan (SIP/SWP) The plan should reflect all actions the school intends to initiate in the upcoming year The SIP/SWP must include the Ten Components SINI schools are required to include the Ten Elements Every Title I school must have a Family Involvement Policy/Plan that includes the action steps from the SIP/SWP 6
