A Title I public school that operates a Targeted Assistance school program:

  • Receives Title I funds, but is ineligible or has chosen not to operate a Title I schoolwide program. In Madison, all Targeted Assistance schools receive Title I funds for targeted assistance services, but are ineligible to operate a Title I schoolwide program. 
  • Uses Title I funds to provide services to a select group of children (those identified as failing, or most at-risk of failing to meet the State's challenging content and student performance standards).
