[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work at a focus school that should be Title 1 (we are a community school and a Farms rate over 75%, SPED rate of 25%, high ELD Population… yeah it’s rough). The kids need so much more than we can provide. They are great kids, but have not had the start in life that everyone deserves. Behaviors are really tough and academically they are so far behind. Many are sad to leave for winter break as food insecurity is real. All this said, I can’t honestly say that reduced class size will make any difference. There needs to be more wrap around services, more para support (a second adult in classrooms make a huge difference), and way better special education support. We need a curriculum that matches the level of students, less testing, more focus on progress rather than grade level “rigor.” The money is so needed in so many ways, but 1 more kid in the class won’t change anything.[/quote] Isn’t a community eligibility school automatically title 1?
