Title I

Parent Involvement in New Jersey Title I Schools

Title 1

Title I is a federal program under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) as reauthorized by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). Title I covers the fiscal and program requirements for improving the academic achievement of students who attend schools eligible for Title I. The purpose of Title I is to ensure that all children have a fair, equal and significant opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach, at minimum, proficiency on challenging State academic achievement standards and state academic assessments. 

Each district that receives Title I, Part A funds must develop a written parental involvement policy that establishes a district's expectations for parent involvement. Below please find links to Hillsborough Township Public Schools communications regarding parent involvement.
