Parklawn Elementary School
School Wide Title I
Our School-wide Title I Program provides us with a full-time reading and math resource teacher as well as a director and instructional assistant for our Parklawn Family Center.
Title I supports evening family literacy and math events that help to strengthen parent-school relationships while helping families better understand how to reinforce teaching in the home.
Our Title I teachers are able to provide on-going staff development by meeting and planning with grade levels on a regular basis and assisting with curriculum alignment and the differentiation of instruction. They work in classrooms each day to support our Inclusive setting and to model instructional strategies that serve to raise student achievement.
Title I teachers also work with small groups of at-risk students in reading and math, intergrating technology, and designing interactive computer lessons for teacher use in the classrooms and the computer labs.
Step Up Language Arts (SULA):
The Step Up Language Arts (SULA) program is designed to strengthen students' reading and writing skills. Title I reading specialists and classroom teachers work together to assess students' strengths and needs and to plan appropriate literacy instruction. SULA instruction focuses on the five essential components of reading: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. SULA teachers provide ongoing professional learning for teachers in their schools. They work in classrooms as well as with small groups of students. Instruction is based on the FCPS Program of Studies (POS) and the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL).

Step Up Math (SUM):
The purpose of the Step Up Mathematics (SUM) program is to increase the mathematics achievement of students in Title I schools. Title I SUM teachers work with classroom teachers to assess student learning and to plan instruction that enables students to understand mathematical concepts, apply problem solving strategies, and develop computational skills. SUM teachers also provide ongoing professional learning for teachers in their schools. They work in classrooms as well as with small groups of students. Instruction is based upon the FCPS Program of Studies (POS), the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL), and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Standards.
