  2. Title I is a federal program which provides financial assistance to Local Education Agencies (LEAs) and schools with high numbers or high percentages of economically disadvantaged students to help ensure that all children meet challenging state academic standards. What is Title I?

  3. Schools in which economically disadvantaged students make up at least 40 percent of enrollment are eligible to use Title I funds for school-wide programs that serve all children in the school.

New accountability has various performance measures under a new College and Career Readiness Performance Index (CCRPI), which serves as a comprehensive report card for all GA schools.
