Title I is a federal program that serves schools throughout the United States. The Title I program was reauthorized under the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. The purpose of this legislation is "to help the neediest schools and students reach the same challenging standards expected of all children." (Public Law 107-110)
The Title I program provides extra help to students to assist them in meeting state and local education standards. The program serves millions of children in elementary and secondary schools each year. Most school districts participate. Funds are directed to schools with the highest poverty levels, measured by the number of students receiving free and reduced-price lunch.

Step Up Math (SUM)
Title I math teachers provide instruction to help students develop math concepts, problem solving strategies, and computational skills. Math teachers and classroom teachers work together to assess students' strengths and needs, and to plan appropriate mathematics instruction that helps students meet the challenging standards in the FCPS Program of Studies (POS) and the Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL). Using manipulatives and other instructional techniques, teachers help children learn to apply math skills to real-life situations.
Title I teachers provide coaching and staff development for classroom teachers to help strengthen and refine mathematics and literacy instruction. Collaboration is the focus of the Title I program
