School Wide Title I Program
for Rockville and Broadmoor Elementary Schools
What is Title I?
Title I is a program through which our school district receives federal funding to provide supplemental instruction for students who qualify. Title I services are based on the academic needs of students. Students who qualify for academic support may be served in the areas of Language Arts and/or Mathematics.
Rockville and Broadmoor have a School-Wide Title I program (effective July 1, 2014) which means ALL students attending the buildings, K-5, are eligible for Title I services. Students are given assessments throughout the year. These assessments provide teachers with the data they need to be able to provide istruction and make academic recommendations to meet the specific needs of EACH child.
The goals of our Title I program is to provide the instructional services the students need in order to increase student performance and academic achievement.
Parents are an Important Part of our TEAM!

By taking an active role in our schools, parents show their children that they are valued and their education is important.
