Introduction to the Report

The State ESEA1

 Title I Participation Summary Report for 2000-2001 summarizes data for the Title I, 

Part A, Grants to Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) program. The Title I Grants to LEAs program 

provides federal financial assistance to eligible school districts and schools to assist them in providing 

opportunities for children most at risk to help them acquire knowledge and skills to meet challenging state 

content and performance standards. The Part A program can serve children as young as preschool age and 

as old as the high school level and provides supplemental services to many special populations including 

children with disabilities, students with limited English proficiency (LEP), and migrant children. This 

program also provides services outside of the traditional public school setting to eligible children in 

nonpublic schools and local institutions for neglected or delinquent students, as well as other support 

services such as family literacy services. 

This report provides Title I participation data for 2000-2001, prior to the implementation of the No Child 

Left Behind Act of 2001, and reflects implementation under the prior law, the Improving America’s 

Schools Act of 1994. The report also presents comparisons to 1999-2000 and previous years. Topics 

include: districts, schools and students served, the range of instructional and support services provided, 

Title I staffing patterns, and schools’ progress toward meeting performance standards, as reported by 

states on state Consolidated Performance Reports. The tables shown in this report reflect data submitted 

by the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. State-by-state tables follow the text that 

amplify the participation data and offer readers a more detailed look at several aspects of the Title I 

program. 

The quality and timeliness of the state-submitted data continue to be an issue. For 2000-2001, state 

reports were due in March 2002, but states were often late in submitting these reports, some of which 

were not submitted until September 2002. In addition, the state reports, once submitted, were often 

incomplete or included apparent errors and inconsistencies that required repeated follow-up calls to 

states. This process was not completed for all of the states until August 2003. ED is currently working 

with states to both improve the quality of their submissions as well as improve their timeliness as part of 

the new data quality guidelines. 

It is also important to note that the reporting requirements have changed under the No Child Left Behind

legislation which reauthorized ESEA. However, this report is based on the 2000-2001 school year and 

therefore reports on data submitted under the 1994 reauthorization and its relevant reporting 

requirements. 

As part of the verification process, states can and do revise information submitted for 2000-2001 as well 

as information submitted for earlier years. As a result of these revisions, some of the information shown 

in this report differs from previously published figures.

The 2000-2001 achievement results will be reported separately in State Education Indicators with a Focus on 

Title I 2000-2001. Refer to the Department’s Web site at: http://www.ed.gov/about/offices/ous/ppss/index.html. 

Title I School and Local Educational Agency Information

Title I, Part A, Grants to LEAs 

program represents the single largest 

investment in elementary and 

secondary education by the federal 

government. This program was 

funded at $7.9 billion in FY 2000, 

which is primarily intended for use 

during the 2000-2001 school year; 

four years later, in FY 2004, total 

appropriations had risen to $12.3 

billion. This single program 

represents almost half (48 percent) of 

federal funds appropriated to support 

elementary and secondary education. 

When shown in constant dollars, 

funding for the Title I Grants to LEAs 

program has risen steadily since the 

mid-1980s. The funding increases 

were particularly dramatic over the most recent four years (2001-2002 through 2004-2005). (See 

Figure 1.) 

For 2000-2001, Title I funds were allocated through two funding formulas—Basic Grants and 

Concentration Grants. At $6.8 billion for 2000-2001, Basic Grants are the largest of the two funding 

streams. Basic Grants provide funds for school districts with at least 10 federal formula-eligible children, 

ages 5-17, who make up more than 2 percent of the overall enrollment count in a district. Concentration 

Grants amounted to $1.2 billion and go to districts in which the number of formula-eligible children 

exceeds 6,500 or 15 percent of the district enrollment. 

More than 90 percent of districts nationwide receive Title I funding. See Table 3a for state-by-state 

counts of participating school districts (LEAs).

Title I Schools by Poverty Level 

In 2000-2001, states reported that 

more than half (56 percent) of the 

Title I schools had rates of school 

poverty that were 50 percent or 

higher. The smallest group of schools 

was those with moderate levels of 

poverty (from 35 percent to 49 

percent). This group represented 19 

percent of all Title I schools. These 

percentages changed only slightly 

from 1999-2000 to 2000-2001. (See 

Figure 2 and Table 1) 

Targeted Assistance Schools (TAS) and 

Schoolwide Program (SWP) Schools 

The Title I Grants to LEAs 

program provided services to 

students in more than 50,000 

schools in 2000-2001. Schools are 

eligible for Title I assistance if their 

poverty rate is at least equal to the 

districtwide average or is at least 35 

percent; however, districts may 

choose to target their Title I funds to 

schools with higher poverty levels. 

(While the statute provides several 

options for measuring school poverty 

levels, most districts use the 

percentage of students eligible for free 

or reduced-price lunches.) 

Schools may use their Title I grants 

for either targeted assistance programs 

or schoolwide programs. Targeted assistance programs use Title I funds to serve individual students with 

the lowest achievement levels, whereas schoolwide programs may use Title I funds more flexibly, in 

combination with other federal, state, and local funds, to improve the educational program of the school 

as a whole. In 2000-2001, schools were eligible to operate schoolwide programs if their poverty rate was 

at least 50 percent; the eligibility threshold for schoolwide programs has been lowered repeatedly over 

time, from 75 percent prior to 1994-1995 to 40 percent under NCLB (effective in the 2002-2003 school 

year).

In 2000-2001, the 25,184 schoolwide programs represented 50 percent of all Title I schools; this 

number has been rising steadily since 1996-1997 (see Figure 3). See Tables 2a and 2b for state-bystate counts of schoolwide programs and targeted assistance schools. 

As a result of the increase in schoolwide programs, the overall number of students counted as Title I 

participants has also increased significantly in recent years. In schoolwide programs, all students in the 

school are considered to be Title I participants, while in targeted assistance programs, only students 

receiving specific Title I-funded services are counted, so the shift toward schoolwide programs has 

resulted in a larger count of Title I participants. 

Schools Identified for Improvement 

The Title I statute requires districts to 

annually review the progress of each 

Title I school to determine whether the 

school is making adequate yearly 

progress toward enabling its students to 

meet state content standards. Schools 

that do not make adequate yearly 

progress for two consecutive years are 

to be identified for improvement. 

States reported that, overall, 8,649 

schools (or 18 percent) participating 

in the Title I program in 2000-2001 

were identified for improvement. 

This proportion is unchanged from that 

reported for 1999-2000. However, 

within this, the percentage of 

schoolwide schools identified for 

improvement increased from 21 to 23 percent and the percentage of targeted assistance schools identified 

for improvement decreased from 16 to 13 percent. Tables 3b, 4a, and 4b provide a state-by-state 

illustration of the two years of data, as well as footnotes to assist in the interpretation of the data. There is 

wide fluctuation in these data for both years. 

Due to the varying identification standards and procedures among the states, caution should be used in 

drawing any national conclusions based on state totals of low-performing schools. Additionally, each 

year, a small number of states did not report information for this item. Therefore the national totals do 

not represent the same states for both years.2

 (See Figure 4 and Tables 3b, 4a, and 4b.) 

School Districts Identified for Improvement 

In the same manner that districts review the progress of schools, states are to annually review the progress 

of districts in enabling students to meet state content standards. Districts that do not meet adequate yearly 

progress targets for two consecutive years are to be identified for improvement. 

 

2

 With the implementation of NCLB, every state may develop its own criteria for identifying schools in need of improvement. 

This means that state-to-state comparisons will continue to be difficult.

In 2000-2001, states reported that 

13,687 school districts received 

Title I grants, an increase of 

9 percent from the previous year. 

Among these districts, 2,298 were 

identified for improvement based on 

state-level criteria. This figure 

represents 17 percent of all Title I 

school districts. However, the 

1999-2000 and 2000-2001 figures 

should be interpreted with caution. 

The criteria used to identify school 

districts for improvement are 

developed within each state; therefore, 

they are not consistent from state to 

state. In addition, in 

1999-2000 and 2000-2001, several 

states failed to provide this 

information. (See Figure 5 and Table 3a.) 

Schools Meeting State Criteria for Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) 

Overall, in 2000-2001, states 

reported that 76 percent of Title I 

schools met state criteria for 

adequate yearly progress (AYP). 

This figure remained unchanged from 

the percent of schools reported by the 

states for 1999-2000. (See Figure 6 

and Table 5.) 

When viewed separately, targeted 

assistance schools (TAS) met these 

criteria at a higher rate than did 

schoolwide programs (SWP). In 2000-

2001, 82 percent of TAS schools and 

72 percent of SWP schools met their 

state criteria for AYP. The targeted 

assistance figure represents an increase 

over the figure reported for 1999-2000. 

The schoolwide percentage remained unchanged over the same period. (See Tables 6a and 6b.)

Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) by Level of School Poverty 

While the overall percentage of 

schools meeting state AYP criteria 

was 76 percent in 2000-2001, the 

percentage of schools meeting the 

state criteria differed by level of 

school poverty. The lowest poverty 

schools met state AYP criteria at the 

highest rate (85 percent in 2000-

2001), while the highest poverty 

schools were least likely to meet 

state AYP criteria (62 percent in 

2000-2001). Although the overall 

rates decreased slightly from 1999-

2000 to 2000-2001, the same pattern 

was in place for both years. (See 

Figure 7 and Table 7.) 

Title I Student Participation 

Overall Participation Patterns

After earlier declines in the number of 

students participating in Title I (1980-

1983), participation has steadily 

increased. This increase was 

particularly dramatic recently, due to 

increases in the number of schoolwide 

programs in which all students are 

included in the counts of Title I 

participants. The overall number of 

Title I participants increased to 

15,118,598 in 2000-2001. This 

represents an increase of 2 percent over 

the 1999-2000 participation level of 

14,847,573 students. (See Figure 8 and 

Tables 8 and 9.)

Grade-Level Participation 

Despite the significant increase in the 

number of participants in the Title I 

Grants to LEAs program, the 

participation rate by grade level was 

virtually unchanged from past years. 

Both public and nonpublic student 

participation was concentrated in 

the elementary grades, where 

literacy and numeracy assistance in 

the early grades is a common strategy. 

Over three-quarters of participants in 

TAS, SWP, and private schools were 

in grades prekindergarten through 

grade 6. Additionally, the largest 

concentration of prekindergarten and 

kindergarten students was in schools 

with schoolwide programs 

(12 percent). 

The 2000-2001 Part A—Neglected3

 participation showed a significant shift in the distribution of students 

by grade from previous years. Several large states (including California, Florida, North Carolina, and 

Texas) reported increases in the percentage of these students in the elementary grades. This shift was 

most pronounced in California where the reported percentage of all Part A—Neglected students in grades 

1-6 went from 6 percent in 1999-2000 to 54 percent in 2000-2001. (See Figure 9 and Table 10.) 

However, despite these shifts, Part A—Neglected participation is still concentrated in the secondary 

grades. Fifty-five percent of Part A—Neglected participants were in grades 7 through 12.

Racial and Ethnic Classification 

In 2000-2001, 35 percent of Title I participants were white non-Hispanic students, 32 percent were 

Hispanic, and 27 percent were black non-Hispanic. Asian and Pacific Islander students accounted for 

3 percent of participants, Native Americans accounted for 2 percent, and other students accounted for 1 

percent. (See Figure 10 and Table 11.)

Over the past two decades (since 1979-1980), Hispanic students have increased from 16 to 32 

percent of total Title I participants while the percentage of white participants decreased from 53 to 35 

percent and the percentage of black participants decreased from 31 to 27 percent. The percentage of 

participants from other racial and ethnic groups, including American Indian and Alaskan Natives and 

Asian and Pacific Islanders, remained largely unchanged during this period. (See Figure 11 and 

Table 12.) 

 

3 The Part A—Neglected program provides funding for services for children living in local institutions for neglected children. 

These services are provided by the school district and are to be comparable to the services provided to the students enrolled in 

the elementary and secondary schools in the district.

Special Populations Served by Title I 

A significant proportion of Title I participants are students from special populations who are at risk of not 

meeting student performance standards. These special needs children include students with disabilities who 

represented 11 percent of the Title I participants, up slightly over the percentage reported for 1999-2000. 

Sixteen percent of Title I participants were classified as students with limited English proficiency and 2 

percent of Title I participants were children of migratory workers. 

Although the overall percentage of special population students has remained fairly stable over the last several 

years, the actual numbers have increased. For example, the number of participants with limited English 

proficiency increased by 157,786 from 2,328,913 in 1999-2000 to 2,486,699 in 2000-2001. Additionally, 

many states report problems identifying special populations that result in significant fluctuations in reported 

numbers from one year to the next. Refer to Tables 13-15 for detailed state-by-state special population 

participation information. 

Services Supported by Title I 

Instructional Services

Instruction in “reading/language arts” and mathematics is the most common service provided to Title I 

students. The reported level of participation represents an increase over the levels reported for 1999-2000 

for both of these subject areas. The percentages reported here can, however, be somewhat misleading as 

some states reported duplicated counts. For example, if a student received instruction in both reading and

language arts, the student would be counted twice for reporting purposes.

Instructional services are reported 

only for participants in TAS schools, 

because schoolwide programs serve 

all students and upgrade the entire 

instructional program in those highpoverty schools. (See Figure 12 and 

Table 16.) 

Other Support Services 

As in past years, smaller percentages 

of TAS students received other Title 

I-funded support services. In 

2000-2001, 12 percent of students 

received Title I-supported 

“guidance/counseling/social work,” 

9 percent received “health/dental” services, and 7 percent received support services classified as “other” 

such as transportation, home visits, nutrition and clothing, and speech therapy. (See Figure 12 and 

Table 16.) 

Family Literacy Services 

The Title I legislation provides 

authority for school districts to conduct 

literacy programs for parents of Title I 

students in a collaborative attempt with 

adult education program providers to 

reach more adults with low literacy 

rates. 

In 2000-2001, state-reported data 

indicate that 18 percent of Title I 

districts provided Title I-supported 

family literacy services, a decline 

from 22 percent reported for 1999-

2000. Four states (California, 

Delaware, Rhode Island, and 

Washington) and Puerto Rico did not 

report the information in 2000-2001, a 

slight improvement from 1999-2000 when six states and Puerto Rico did not report these data. (See 

Figure 13 and Table 17.)

Extended-Time Instructional Programs 

In 2000-2001, state-reported data indicate that there were 16,632 Title I-supported extended time 

instructional programs in operation (one state, California, did not report these data). However, this 

figure may not be reliable because there are large fluctuations from one year to the next in the figures 

reported by many states. Although the data appear to indicate a 5 percent increase in the number of 

extended-time programs from 1999-2000 to 2000-2001, it is more likely that the reported increase is due 

to a change in state reporting practices. Five states that reported either no data or zero programs in 1999-

2000 subsequently provided counts of programs in 2000-2001; these states more than account for the 

increase of 767 programs over the two years. Refer to Table 18 for state-by-state figures. 

Title I Staffing Patterns

Almost one-half (44 percent) of the 

staff funded by Title I in 2000-2001 

were teachers. This percentage is 

unchanged from 1999-2000. The 

percentage of staff described as 

teacher aides also remained 

virtually unchanged (40 percent in 

1999-2000 and 39 percent in 

2000-2001). 

Teachers and teacher aides account 

for 83 percent of the total staff 

funded by Title I dollars. While this 

proportion has remained virtually 

unchanged since 1981-1982, there 

have been fluctuations over the past 

five years between the percentage of 

staff identified as teachers and aides. The FTE number of local administrators comprised a small 

proportion of staff (3 percent). (See Figures 14 and 15 and Tables 19 and 20.)

As part of the revised data collection 

instrument (starting in 1996-1997), 

states were asked to provide full-time 

equivalent (FTE) staffing information 

for targeted assistance schools only. 

The reason for this change was that, in 

schoolwide schools, the LEAs are not 

required to track Title I dollars to 

particular activities or staff.

Notes: The total figures shown in this table only include those states that submitted information on both the number

1999-2000, nine states (Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Iowa, Missouri, Montana, New 

Jersey, and Washington) and Puerto Rico failed to submit this information. This figure was reduced to five 

states (Arkansas, Connecticut, Hawaii, New Jersey, and New York) for 2000-2001. Therefore the figures 

shown in this table differ from figures shown in other tables.

Notes: Percents (across) may not add to 100 due to rounding. For 1999-2000, Missouri did not provide the participation information broken 

out by TAS and SWP. For this state, all of their participants are reported in the overall totals but not in the public TAS and SWP 

breakouts. Additionally, three states (Maine, Minnesota, and Utah) did not provide information on the number of Local N or D 

participants in 1999-2000. This figure was reduced to two states (Minnesota and New Jersey) for 2000-2001. California did not 

provide data on private school participants for 1999-2000.

Notes: Percents (across) may not add to 100 due to rounding. For 1997-1998, two states were unable to provide participation 

information broken out by TAS and SWP. For 1998-1999 and 1999-2000, Missouri was the only state that did not provide this 

information. For these states, all of their participants are reported in the overall totals but not in the Public TAS and SWP 

breakouts. Not all states provided information on Local N or D for all years. See the notes at the end of Table 8b for detailed 

information.

Notes: Percents (across) may not add to 100 due to rounding. The number of participants shown in this table does not equal the figure

reported in Table 7 because that table summarizes state-reported by-grade information. (The totals shown in Table 7 are based on 

data reported in the by-grade section of the consolidated performance report.) In some states, the total number of participants 

reported by racial and ethnic classification differs from the total number reported by grade. The 1999-2000 and 2000-2001 racial 

and ethnic information submitted by Hawaii was broken out into 14 separate categories. This detailed breakout was combined 

here for reporting purposes.

Notes: The total number of students shown in this table is taken from the by-grade figures reported by the states. In this 

table, the figures for TAS and SWP are combined, as a small number of states were unable to provide this 

information separately. In 1999-2000, Pennsylvania did not provide information for this data item and Rhode 

Island and Pennsylvania did not provide this information for 2000-2001. Therefore, this table does not include 

participants from these states in the total calculations.

+ No State Performance Report information was collected for the 1995-1996 school year. 

** Starting with this reporting year, states were asked to report information for only Targeted Assistance 

(TAS) schools. In 1996-1997, the information submitted by the states was nearly equally divided 

between those states which submitted information for TAS schools only and those which submitted 

information for TAS and schoolwide (SWP) combined. By the 1998-1999 reporting year, all states 

indicated that the reported data was for TAS schools only.
