Greetings Johnston Jaguars!  This is Mr. Brokovich your principal.  Johnston Elementary is a Title 1 school that provides a school-wide Title 1 program.  One of the Title 1 requirements is to hold a meeting to inform parents and stakeholders that we are a Title 1 campus and to provide a short summary of how Title 1 funds benefit Johnston Elementary School.

Unfortunately, because of the COVID pandemic, we have stopped holding large gatherings as one of our safety precautions.  This year, instead of holding an in-person meeting, I am attaching our Title 1 presentation to this email.  Please review it at your leisure.

You may already be aware, but Title 1 is the largest federal aid program for public schools in the United States.  Its purpose 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 state academic achievement standards and state academic assessments.  Title 1 allocations are intended to help schools establish and maintain programs that will improve the educational opportunities of low-income and disadvantaged students.

At Johnston Elementary School, Title 1 provides us nine additional supplemental staff members and $30,000 of direct instructional programming support.  As you can see, Johnston benefits from Title 1 greatly!

These are trying times, but I assure you that we are continuing to work hard to provide the best education possible for your children—our students.  Title 1 is one of the major programs that helps us accomplish that task.

Thank you for your time and support.  Keep well and stay safe!

Go Jaguars!
