No. A Title 1 school is a school that serves low-income children. A Title 1 school might also be a low-performing school (since poverty and low school performance are highly correlated). A school’s eligibility for fulfilling a GTF teaching obligation is determined solely by the API ranking of that school. Teaching in a Title 1 school that has an API ranking of 6 or more would not satisfy your GTF teaching obligation.
