 Anana Elementary School is a Title I School

Title I is the largest single program of federal aid for elementary and secondary education. Using a poverty-based formula, Title I allocates funds to school districts on a per pupil basis to offset the effects of poverty on the educational opportunities of students in high-poverty schools. These funds are used to enhance or supplement above and beyond the regular school program paid for by state and local dollars. The Title I funding that we receive supports our School Improvement goals related to high quality curriculum and teaching in an effective learning environment. Our goals for learning are focused on literacy, mathematics and student engagement. Title I funding also supports our Parent Involvement Plan and the activities that engage and empower families throughout the year.
