What happens to Title I schools that do not make Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)?
Title I schools not making AYP in the same subject (reading/language arts or mathematics) for two years in a row are identified for Title I School Improvement. In the first and subsequent years of Title I School Improvement, the school must provide students with public school choice and tutoring, known as supplemental educational services (SES). In the 3rd year of Title I School Improvement, schools must take corrective actions, such as replacing school staff, implementing new curriculum, or changing the internal organization structure while continuing to offer choice and SES. Schools in the 4th year of School Improvement must plan for restructuring. Schools in the fifth year of School Improvement must implement the restructuring plan.
