As we wrap up the last week of May, we're excited to welcome June and all the exciting events that come with it! It is very hard to believe that we have less than 3 weeks of school left for the 2023-2024 school year!

Please view the Important Dates to Remember section of the newsletter for field day dates and time, our 5th Grade Farewell, and our Kindergarten Move-Up Celebration.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your continued support throughout the year. Your partnership has been invaluable to our students' success, and I am grateful for all that you do.

What is Title I?

Title I is a project funded by the federal government under the Every Child Succeeds Act. The purpose of this Act is to provide all children with fair and equitable opportunity to succeed and close achievement gaps. Money is allocated by the federal government and distributed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education to the Bristol Township School. District.

Title I funding is based on a complex formula. These funds are allocated to the states who in turn allocate a portion of that money to the individual school districts within each state. The school district’s share is based on the economic need within a school area, that is, by the number of low income families living there. In our district the number of free and reduced lunch students is used to determine the economic need of a particular school.
