Title I Parent Involvement Policy

Karen Johnson, Principal

Valley View High School has developed a written Title I parental involvement policy with input from Title I parents. The policy is distributed to parents of Title I students in the student registration packet at the beginning of the school year, or when the student is enrolled. In addition, an annual Title I parent meeting is held in the Fall to share with them information regarding the Title I program at Valley View High School, their rights under Title I, and how they can be involved in the planning, review, and improvement of the Title I program. This policy describes the means for carrying out the following Title I parental involvement requirements. [Title I Parental Involvement, 20 USC 6318(a)-(f)]
