Title I, Part A funds are provided by the federal government to seven of the Lauderdale County schools. Each Title I school receives an allocation based on the number of free and reduced lunches at each local school. Each school receives a per pupil allocation plus a portion of the 1% system allocation set aside for parental involvement. The system and schools use the funds for additional personnel, instructional specialists, instructional paraprofessionals, professional development, and instructional materials. These federal funds are in addition to required state and local funds provided to all schools in Lauderdale County.

A Title One school must be identified as a school-wide or targeted assistance school. In order to be served as a school-wide school, the free/reduced lunch percentage must be 40% or greater. To be served as a targeted assistance school, the free/reduced lunch percentage must be 35% or greater. For the 10-11 school year, Lauderdale County will serve seven schools as school-wide programs: Cloverdale Junior High School, Waterloo High School, Anderson High School, Wilson High School, Central High School, Lauderdale County High School, and Rogers High School. 

Inquiries or concerns related to Title One, Part A may be directed to Mrs. Jennifer Gray, Federal Programs Coordinator.
