Title I Eligibility Report Information

What to do with completed Eligibility Reports

Public Sshools designated as Targeted Assistance Schools and all Non-public schools are required to compile information about eligible students using the Eligibility Report Worksheet and Quick Eligibility Report Directions and Ranking Criterion available as downloads above. Completed eligibility work sheets should be turned in per arrangements made by site administrators. In non-public schools, Title I service providers will work with school staff to identify those eligible students with the greatest academic needs who will get Title I services. Public schools may contact the Title IA office at 475-8009 for assistance in this process. Services may not be extended to students not identified in this process. Check for accuracy and completeness before turning in reports:

• Is Demographic Information complete for all eligible students?
• Every student who is listed as eligible for Title I service in the nonpublic, Targeted Assistance programs needs to have one or more of the eligibility criterion checked.
• All students who are eligible must have a Title I rank of 1, 2 or 3 (ranks of 1 indicate students with greatest needs).
• Students should be getting service based upon their Title I ranks. No student with a lower rank should get services unless all students with higher ranks are also getting service.
• Staff members at non-public schools should not check academic service area fields since determinations about which students will get service will be made when all of the initial screening work is done. Public schools should check service area fields to indicate areas where students are getting Title Ia support.
• Is report header information complete and accurate? (E-mail and FAX numbers are not required.)

Once schools have identified eligible students and decided, in consultation with Title I personnel, upon those to be served, eligibility information should be turned over to local Title I personnel for entry into electronic database. Academic service areas should be indicated for the students who are being served by Title I in non-public school programs (Local Title I personnel are responsible to see that it is completed and transmitted to the Title I office.)

Title I law allows service to eligible students enrolled in non-public "targeted assistance" schools, but not to the schools themselves. Care should be taken to ensure that Title I services are not extended to too large a percentage of targeted assistance school students. Contact Edward Valent, Title Program Supervisor at the MPS Title I office at (414) 475-8122 with questions about this limitation.
