Title One Reading Facts

Facts about Title One Reading

Q: How was my child selected for Title One Reading support?
A: All Jefferson Elementary students were given various school wide assessments and the results were evaluated across the grade level. After reviewing these scores, students were selected to receive this support by collaboration of classroom teacher, title one reading teacher and principal. Parents were then notified of recommended placement into Title One Reading support.
Q: Will my child miss important classroom instruction while receiving additional reading instruction?
A: The Title One teacher and your child’s classroom teacher work to schedule times when the student would not miss core instruction. Most times students are pulled out during stations or independent practice.
Q: How long will my child be in reading support?
A: The length of the intervention depends on how much progress is made and how quickly it is made.  Most students receive 13 weeks of reading help and some students make grade level benchmarks and are released from Title One Reading earlier than this. A few students will receive intensive reading intervention beyond the title one reading program with the reading teacher in a small group.  Once a child has been dismissed, he or she will continue to be monitored to ensure continued progress.
