TITLE I INFORMATION
-
Britt Elementary School is a Title I school in good standing.
We have not been classified as a Focus, Alert, or Priority school by the state of Georgia.
Britt's schoolwide Title I program offers services and programs that help improve the education of all students. It is designed to help all students get a good education and meet academic standards.
Under Title I, parents have the right to request information about the degree and qualifications of their child's teacher(s) and paraprofessional(s), if applicable.
Title I is a federally funded program resulting from the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. Britt Elementary receives Title I funds and those funds are used to pay for items such as the following:
- Teacher salaries (which lowers the student/teacher ratio)
- Staff development and release time for teachers to plan instruction
- Extended learning time programs
- Purchasing technology for classrooms
- Purchasing consumable and non-consumable teaching materials
- Paying presenters and childcare providers at parent workshops
- Purchasing materials and resources for the Parent Center
- Learning experiences
All decisions regarding the Title I Program are made in Title I Planning Meetings. These meetings are open to all parents who wish to attend. Planning Meetings help decide which topics are offered at our Parent Workshops, how Title I funds should be spent, what materials should be purchased for the Parent Center, and for writing, revising, and approving Title I Documents. Planning Meetings also help analyze data based on our end-of-the-year parent surveys.If you are interested in participating in our Title I Planning Meetings, please contact Dr. Dawn White at 678-639-3884 or attend the next Title I meeting. Hardcopies of Britt's Title I School-Wide Plan can be found in Britt's Parent Center, the office of Britt's Assistant Principal for Title I, the Media Center, and in the office of Federal and Special Programs at the Instructional Support Center located at 437 Old Peachtree Road.For more information about Title I and Gwinnett County Public Schools, please visit the Gwinnett County Public Schools website.
