Beauregard Parish Title I Program provides instructional personnel, supplies, and equipment to students in grades K-5. This program focuses on providing highly qualified personnel to work with students in math and reading.
The implementation of instructional technology is a primary goal of this program. Computer labs are utilized at each Title I School. Reading and math software provides reinforcement of skills as well as prescriptive lessons in a motivational enviornment.
A major emphasis of Title I is parental involvement. Computer labs located at schools are utilized after scheduled school hours to encourage parents to spend time with their children in a rich learning environment.
Professional development for teachers and paraprofessionals is another important facet of the Title I program. Training is provided in the areas of communication, reading, math, and computer-assisted instruction.
Early intervention is a key focus of the Title I program. Elementary students at-risk of meeting the literacy requirements necessary to succeed in school are provided additional instruction/strategies in reading by qualified personnel.
