Basic Programs
Title I Part A

SD State Link

Title I is a federally funded program designed to ensure that all children have an opportunity to access a high quality education. The goal of this federal program is to close the achievement gap for all students. There are two types of Title I programs: Targeted Assistance School programs and Schoolwide Title I programs.

Iroquois Elementary and Middle School are Targeted Assistance Title I schools and are federally funded programs that provide support to students who need supplemental assistance to succeed in the regular classroom.  The school's eligibility to receive funding is determined in part by the number of students enrolled in the free & reduced lunch program.  Title 1 instructors & regular classroom teachers work together to meet the needs of ALL students.

Migrant Programs
Title I Part C

SD State Link

The goal of the Migrant Education Program is to ensure that all migrant students reach challenging academic standards and graduate with a high school diploma (or complete a GED) that prepares them for responsible citizenship, further learning, and productive employment.

At Risk Youth
Title I Part D

SD State Link

The N/D program was established to improve educational services for children and youth in local and State institutions for neglected or delinquent children and youth so that such children and youth have the opportunity to meet the same challenging State academic content standards and challenging State student academic achievement standards that all children in the State are expected to meet; to provide such children and youth with the services needed to make a successful transition from institutionalization to further schooling or employment; and to prevent at-risk youth from dropping out of school, and to provide dropouts, and children and youth returning from correctional facilities or institutions for neglected or delinquent children and youth, with a support system to ensure their continued education.
