The Department of Federal Programs and Grants oversees compliance with the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).  ESSA is the federal law signed into effect in 2015 that governs elementary and secondary education across the United States.   The Department also applies for and manages other federal, state or local grants that provide additional resources across the District.  

Responsibilities of the Department of Federal Programs include:   

• Provide support to district and school staff to ensure compliance with programmatic and fiscal requirements required by federal and state law.
• Offer assistance to schools in using all government or other grant related funds to support quality educational programming for all students in order to raise academic achievement
• Work with federal, state, and local agencies on programming or grant efforts to benefit students and families within the мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø.

мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø staff is fully committed to helping children develop the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in school and beyond. Federal Title I funds are used to assist our students in meeting state achievement standards.

Our 2023-24 Title 1 Right-To-Know letter, available in English and Spanish, lets you know about your right to request information about the qualifications of classroom staff working with your child and information about student assessments given during the school year.
