Edgewood City Schools

Edgewood Primary, Edgewood Early Childhood Center, and Edgewood Intermediate School are fortunate to have a supplemental reading program called Title 1 Reading. This program is funded by the Federal Government. Students are selected to participate in this program based on his/her scores on the following assessments such as STAR Reading and DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills).

Please see this attached letter for additional information.

The Federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 requires school districts that receive federal Title I funding to notify parents of their right to know the professional qualifications of the classroom teachers who instruct their child. As a recipient of these funds, Edgewood City Schools will provide you with this information in a timely manner if you request it. Specifically, you have the right to request the following information about each of your child's classroom teachers:

• Whether the teacher meets the state qualifications and licensing criteria for the grades and subjects he or she teaches.
• Whether the teacher is teaching under the emergency or provisional status because of special circumstances.
• The teacher's college major, whether the teacher has any advanced degrees, and the field of discipline of the certification or degree.
• Whether paraprofessionals provide services to your child and, if so, their qualifications.
