What happens if a school that becomes a SWP drops below the initial eligibility threshold in a subsequent year?
To promote effective long-term planning, a school maintains its SWP eligibility even if it drops below the initial 40 percent poverty threshold required for eligibility into the program. If, however, the school becomes ineligible for Title I funds based on percentage of poverty, the LEA may qualify the school under the “grandfathering” provision for only one additional year.
