PARENT AND FAMILY ENGAGEMENT

Current law in ESEA Section 1116 requires that parents be offered substantial and meaningful opportunities to participate in the education of their children, and explicitly mandates parent consultation in all required planning, including the development of Title I applications, school-wide plans, and improvement plans for low-performing schools Title I funds may be used to develop or support effective parental involvement (PI) programs for Title I families

  • In a TAS - only for the families of identified Title I students
  • In a SWP - for all families

FUNDS

The District Wide Set Asides page are for “off the top” set asides that will reduce the total allocation

  • For example, if you have received a total allocation of $400,000 and set

aside $10,000 for PI, you would be able to allocate $390,000 to your schools

If LEA allocation is more than $500,000, the district is required to set 1% of the funds for PI Any funds set aside in PI or professional development will give participating non-public schools an equitable share for each student

BUDGET

While creating this budget, note that 90% of the first 1% set-aside for PI must be used at the school level

  • This is allocated on the Eligible School Summary page
  • Priority given to high-need schools
  • Districts do not have to distribute PI funding to schools in proportion to

the schools’ share of other Title I funds

The remaining 10% of the first 1% and anything above 1% can be budgeted on the District Wide Set-Asides Parental Involvement page

  • These are funds to be used at the district and not at a particular school
