From handbook…
Perhaps the most important guiding principle in the proper use of Title I
funds is the concept of “supplementing” and not “supplanting” District
effort. Title I funds provided through the Consolidated Application and
Reporting System (CARS) is intended to supplement the District effort in
order to ensure that every student has equal access to the core curriculum.
The District must provide what is called the “base program” of instruction
available to every student. Federal Title I funds may then be used to
provide supplementary materials/services to enhance this base program
so that students who may need it can be provided extra help to achieve
what is expected in the core curriculum.
