Title I Reading
September 4, 2007
Dear Parents,
Your child has been selected to participate in the
Title I Reading Program for the 2007-2008 school year. Title I is the largest federally funded
educational program. Its purpose is to
help children succeed in the regular classroom, attain grade level proficiency,
and improve achievement in basic and advanced reading skills. These
accomplishments are made through supplemental instruction and the increased
involvement of parents in their child’s education.
Classroom teachers refer students who they are
concerned about based on daily classroom observation, work habits and
performance on formal and informal assessments. Research indicates that early intervention and supplemental
support will help your child reach his/her maximum potential.
The Title I Reading teacher will work closely with
your child’s classroom teacher and offer additional support in Reading. The Title I program is a combination of in
class support and small group pull-out.
Please complete and return the permission form at
the bottom of this letter on or before Friday, September 7th. If you have any questions about this
program, please feel free to contact Mrs. Holmes at (508) 581-1610, extension
3560 or me, at (508) 581-1620, extension 3222.
Sincerely,
Tina A. Schirner
Title I Director
