Editor's Notes
- Welcome to Title Programs 101 – a new learning opportunity for you.
- All of the items/topics we plan to cover today – fast and furious
- When you read any federal regulation on spending, you will see that it must be “supplemental”
- Also, can not cover items/salaries previously paid with local funds.
- Covers the overall school, just like the icing on the cake. View your basic local/state funds are the sheet cake (it is the foundation), then you add the icing (title one funds) to make the cake even better.
- WISD took a 10% cut in title funding this year. We will be doing more with less – most campuses will do without the 45 day tutors at this point based on funding.
- Services all students.Keep logs of students to document services provided by title employees/tutors and allows a campus then to evaluate the effectiveness of the program/person based on the student performance on state assessments.
- Any campus with over 75% low SES must receive a per student allotment of the title funds that is greater than those campuses below the 75%. JES and RRE will receive extra services this year due to their percent of low SES students.
- Components look familiar? How about they match our CIP….
- Key questions to ask about any expenditures of title funds.
- A 87 refers to the public schoolsAllowable and unallowable costs.Use examples and let them search the OMB for answers.
- Funds used to assist in recruiting in HR and embedded prof dev with the content coordinators.Lucky to still have the DATE funds for the fall semester to prof dev.
- Remind about sheet cake (local/state funds), icing (title one), and now the decorations (Title III). The dots on the cake represents the LEP students being served with title 3 funds. This is not for all students – only the LEP identified students.
- Imagine learning45 day LEP tutorsBilingual interventionist
- Detailed out are the campus requirements for schoolwide Title campuses. These items are done each year.
- Generally a 5 day turnaround on all audit requests from TEA. Prevents districts from “creating” items.
- Thank you for the role you play in keeping us in compliance and meeting the academic needs to assist our students in their academic achievements.
