Title I School

We are fortunate to have a special program called Title I at our school.  Title I is a federal program that provides money to school districts to help children become successful learners.  The purpose of Title I is to provide educational services for children who need extra help. Title I serves students and families in 16 public and 10 private schools in Green Bay.  

All 16 public Title I schools operate as “school-wide programs”.  A School-wide program may use Title I funds to serve all students in the school, regardless of academic need.  The school must have a specific plan to explain how it will use Title I funds to improve the educational program.   At Howe Elementary Community School we are working to make improvements in the following areas: math, literacy, attendance and family engagement.

Our school district is required to review whether our Title I programs are effective.  Schools need to show that students are making progress toward meeting the state standards.   We hold a meeting each spring to share our progress and goal outcomes with parents.  All parents are invited and we hope to see you there. 

Parent involvement is a very important part of Title I.  Parents are encouraged to be involved in their children’s education and to participate in planning the Title I program.  Parent participation is required and welcomed.  If you are interested in participating in important Title I decisions or have ideas for how we can improve our program, please reach out to Principal Kallioinen.
