Support at Franklin - Title I information
-
Title I school teams meet with families each year to determine the best ways to work together to make sure all students get the individual support they need to reach and exceed grade level standards. The families and staff at Franklin annually discuss, review and revise a Title I Family-School Compact - which is a jointly developed agreement.

What is Title I funding?
Title I is a federally funded program that is part of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). The goal of this law is to help all students meet grade level expectations in reading and math as written in the Minnesota state standards. Our school has extra reading and math intervention teachers who can help the students who are performing below grade level in reading and/or math. This is done to be fair and equitable for all students.
The Anoka-Hennepin elementary schools whose families have the highest economic needs receive Title I dollars to help raise the academic achievement of all their students. We are a Title I Schoolwide school, and so we write goals each year to meet the needs of our school. These goals are written with staff, family, and student voices. The resources and money that come from Title I are used to meet those goals and support student success.
You may be able to help increase the funding that your school receives. If you believe that your family income may be within the guidelines for the program, you may view the application online, request an application from your school or from the school district's child nutrition program by calling 763-506-1240.

Title I schools [non-public]
Eligible private schools located within the geographic attendance boundaries of the Anoka-Hennepin School District are given the option of participating in equitable services for private school students and staff under the Elementary Secondary Education Act (ESEA). Under ESEA school districts are required to provide eligible children attending private elementary and secondary schools, their teachers and their families with services or other benefits that are equitable to those provided to eligible public school children, their teachers, and their families. Services, not funding, are provided by the district to eligible students, their families, and staff at the nonpublic school sites.
Title I, Part A
These are educational services that supplement students’ education at the private school so that all children have a fair, equal, and significant opportunity to obtain a high-quality education. Generally, to qualify for assistance under Title I, a student must reside within the attendance area of a participating public school located in a low-income area and be failing, or at risk of failing, to meet student academic achievement standards.
- The following non-public schools within the Anoka-Hennepin attendance boundaries qualify and accept Title I funding: Northside Christian, St. Stephen's Catholic Schools and Way of the Shepherd.
