Title IV

  • Title IV funds provide students with access to a well-rounded education; support safe and healthy learning environments, and improve the effective use of technology to enhance academic achievement and digital literacy for all students.

    The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) includes a number of provisions that promote equitable access to educational opportunity, including holding all students to high academic standards, ensuring meaningful action is taken to improve the lowest-performing schools and schools with underperforming student groups, and providing more children with access to high-quality preschool. In addition, the Student Support and 精东传媒 Enrichment (SSAE) program, authorized under subpart 1 of Title IV, Part A of the ESSA, is intended to help increase the capacity of local educational agencies (LEAs), schools, and local communities to 1) provide all students with access to a well-rounded education; 2) improve school conditions for student learning, and 3) improve the use of technology to improve the academic achievement and digital literacy of all students.
