Title I / LAP Programs

Title I Program:

 
Title I is a remedial education program designed to help students who require some assistance in reading, math, or language arts.

Learning Assistance Program (LAP):

 
The LAP program provides supplemental instruction for students who need some additional help, primarily in reading and math.

A student can qualify for these programs through:

  • Measures of Academic Progress (MAP testing)
  • Teacher recommendation and/or parent input

An Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) is not required.
