Title I Distinguished Schools
Overview
The National Title I Distinguished Schools Program recognizes schools that meet the new performance based criteria outlined in the No Child Left Behind Act of 2000. Schools are chosen based on their meeting strict criteria.
The purpose of the National Title I Distinguished Schools Recognition Program is to recognize two schools from each state.
- One school will represent the state’s Title I schools that have exhibited exceptional student performance for two or more consecutive years by meeting or exceeding the Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) requirements.
- One school will represent the state’s Title I schools that have made the most progress in significantly closing the achievement gap among the No Child Left Behind subgroups (economically disadvantaged students, students from major racial and ethnic groups, students with disabilities and students with limited English proficiency).
