Approve the submission of thirteen Title I Accountability Projects for School Improvement to the Florida Department of Education.
The Florida Department of Education has identified thirteen Title I schools as 'low performing' for the 2001-2002 school year. Funds are allocated to Title I schoolwide schools having an 'F' Accountability grade in 2000 and 'D' schools with a minimum of 90 percent low-income, based on the number of students that were eligible for free and reduced price lunch for the fiscal year 2000-2001.
Listed below are the Title I schools that received a grade of 'D' and have at least 90 percent of their students from low-income families. The allocation for each school is also indicated.
