General Instructions

Section 9501 of No Child Left Behind requires equitable participation opportunities for nonpublic schools in the Title I Program. NCLB requires prior consultation with nonpublics to determine the services to be provided through grant funds. Such consultation must occur prior to making any decisions that may impact the opportunity for students, parents and staff of nonpublic schools to participate in the program.

Information regarding nonpublic school students should be uploaded to eGrants prior to the submission of the 2016-17Title I Application to PDE. An LEA is required to survey nonpublic schools where low-income students attend to determine the number of nonpublic schools choosing to participate in the 2016-17Title I program.

Nonpublic schools may request Title I services for students, teachers and/or parents that meet the intent of the Title I program. The LEA must plan and coordinate these services with nonpublic school representatives.
