Title I provides federal money to our school system for extra educational services for students who are behind in school. RockinghamCounty Schools allocates this money to all schools in the school system that have a high percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunches.
South End is designated as a Title I School for the 2008 - 2009 school year. This status is a result of having 55% of our students qualify for free or reduced lunch services. As a Title I school, we will receive funds from the federal government to provide extra educational services for students who are behind in school. With this additional funding comes increased accountability as the opportunity to provide parents with the resources necessary to be more involved in their child's education.
Please take an active role at South End by volunteering when you can, talking with your child's teacher on a regular basis, and being active in our Title I parent meeting. The caring and supportive relationships between teachers, students, parents, and members of our community provide us with the foundation necessary to achieve academic excellence.
