Title 1 is Federal funding LAP is state funding The amount of financial support provided

through Title 1 is significantly greater than that provided through LAP

Title 1 funding in the WSD is allocated to WPS, WIS and Yale to support early interventions.

LAP funding in the WSD is allocated to WMS and WHS.

No Child Left Behind sanctions only apply to Title 1 schools.

No Child Left Behind sanctions do not apply to LAP schools, such as WMS and WHS.

This being said, if a school does not receive Title 1 allocations (WMS and WHS) it is exempt from the step process/school improvement and sanctions that accompany not making AYP.

We must continue improvement planning District must continue to offer public

school choice District must provide supplemental

educational services (SES) to low-achieving, low-income students

Districts must use the equivalent of 20% of its Title I funds to finance public school choice and SES

School must set aside 10% of building allocation for professional development

Supplemental Educational Services (SES) are additional academic instruction designed to increase the academic achievement of students in schools in the second year of improvement, corrective action, or restructuring.

SES is available to students who: (1) attend a Title 1 school not meeting AYP standards in reading and/or math (2) are in step 2 or beyond and (3) are classified as low-income families (free and reduced).

Each student who qualifies for SES is allocated a specific dollar amount for services. This comes from the 20% of Title 1 allotment that schools in step 2 must set aside.

These services, which are in addition to instruction provided during the school day, may include academic assistance such as tutoring, remediation and other supplemental academic enrichment services that are consistent with the content and instruction used by Woodland Intermediate and are aligned with the state’s academic content and achievement standards.

Parents may select any provider from the state approved list, as long as that provider is able to provide services in or near the area served by the public school, which may include approved providers that use e-learning, online, or distance learning technology to provide supplemental educational services.

All providers must be approved by OSPI. OSPI provides a list of approved providers. Examples include:

Sylvan Learning Center ESD 112 Better Grades In Home Tutoring Academic Link Outreach Able Academics ACE Tutoring Services, Inc. Brilliance Academy ETC.
