Title I is a federally funded program that provides educational opportunities to help children become successful in school. The Title I Reading Program at Odebolt-Arthur identifies those elementary students most in need of reading help and sets goals for improvement. The Title I reading program is supplemental
to the regular classroom reading program. Students attend Title I classes individually or in small groups.
These classes meet daily for 25-30 minutes. The Title I teacher and classroom teachers meet regularly to coordinate curriculum and determine student progress.
Parent involvement in a critical factor in students' reading development. Research shows that parental involvement in education greatly improves student achievement. The Odebolt-Arthur Parent-School Compact states the goals and responsibilities of parents, students, and the school. Daily at-home reading is an integral part of the Title I program. Parents interact with their child while reading and discussing books.
By working together we can best meet the reading needs of the students. An annual meeting is held to give parents the opportunity to have input into the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the Title I Program.
