District Title I Plan Summary
-
Activities for 2022-2023
The distribution of Title I funds to a school is based upon the number of students in the school who qualify for subsidized meals. For the 2022-2023 school year, Aiken County Public Schools allocated 5.6 million dollars to thirty-two public schools. These resources were distributed to schools where needs are the greatest and in amounts sufficient to make a difference in the improvement of instruction.
The portion of Title I funds not allocated to schools is expended on district-wide Title I activities to assist in improving the instructional program in all Title I schools and to ensure that the schools and the district continue to be in compliance with Title I regulations. If you have questions regarding the Title I Plan for district-wide activities, please contact Kristy Cansler, Director of Federal Programs.
