A Catalyst for CHANGE
Title I dollars and other funding streams
work together in concert to help all children.
Title 1, Part A programs ensure that all children have a fair, equal and significant opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach, at a minimum, proficiency on challenging state academic achievement standards and state academic assessments.
Flint Community Schools using Title I funds to support the community school approach allows the District to coordinate efforts with community partners to address the social, emotional, and academic needs of the whole child.
A whole child approach, which ensures that each student is healthy, safe, engaged, supported, and challenged, sets the standard for comprehensive, sustainable school improvement and provides for long-term scholar success.
A whole child approach to education is one which focuses attention on the social, emotional, mental, physical as well as cognitive development of scholars. At its core such an approach views the purpose of schooling as developing future citizens and providing the basis for each child to fulfill their potential.
