  • Title 1 information

Redwood Elementary is a Title 1 school.

This program, which is now the pillar of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), is our oldest and largest federally funded education program, according to the U.S. Department of Education. It dates from 1965 and its main purpose has been to help underprivileged children meet challenging state academic standards. In other words schools with a student base that are lower-income are provided with title 1 funding in order to help those who are behind or at risk of falling behind, aiming to bridge the gap between low-income students and other students.

The financial assistance is provided through state educational agencies (SEAs) to local educational agencies (LEAs) and public schools.

We are given extra funds each year to help our students overcome any disadvantages they may experience such as homelessness or poverty. The staff at Redwood is committed to doing everything we can to teach the students to be resilient and successful in their lives. Each year, we work as a Community Council and staff of the school to determine the best use of the funds we are given. If you are interested in being a part of the decision-making, please contact Principal Koehler at 385-646-4986.
