[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually have a question about this. I was under the impression that once a school hits 40% , it becomes Title I. My kids' school is currently at 40%, maybe a bit higher, and this has not happened. Did FCPS change the requirements (I thought that % was set federally, but maybe not)? [/quote] Not sure. Maybe it has to be at or above 40% for several years before it is designated a Title 1 school.[/quote] I think schools with a poverty rate above 40% are eligible for Title I funds, but it is not mandatory until the school has a poverty rate over 75%. See https://www.fcps.edu/node/33392 Also note that calculations are based on students aged 5-17 who live in the school's boundary, not the students who actually attend the school.[/quote]
