    Title I Programs Support the Katy ISD Mission

    Katy Independent School District, the leader in educational excellence, together with family and community, provides unparalleled learning experiences designed to prepare and inspire each student to live an honorable, fulfilling life...to create the future.

    MPE is a school-wide Title I Campus

    Title I, Part A, is a federal program designed to help all students meet the state's challenging academic performance standards. School-wide Title I Programs provide supplemental funds that are used to improve the educational program of the entire school.

    The Title I Program strives to ensure that every child is able to learn and perform at levels that meet or exceed the state academic standards.

    The additional resources through these funds allow us to provide additional staff and enhanced instructional programs for all students.

    •  The funds also support activities for our parents to be involved in their children's education.

    • Benefits of a School-wide Title I Program

    • Instructional services such as intervention or tutoring

    • Additional teachers to support instructional services

    • Educational materials to improve instruction

    • Professional development for teachers and support staff

    • Parent involvement opportunities

    Notice to Parents

     As a parent of a student at a campus receiving Title I funds, federal law allows you the right to know the professional qualifications of the classroom teacher who instructs your child, and Federal law requires the school district to provide you with this information in a timely manner, if you request it.

    Notice of Parent Activities

    Parents will receive invitations and reminders for all parent activities.
    These invitations and advertisements are provided in a variety of ways, such as the MPE's website, E-News, Panther Update, Marquis, and flyers, etc.

    Parent Rights Under NCLB

    As the parent of a student at a Title I campus, 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/she teaches.

    • Whether the teacher is teaching under 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.

    Title I campuses shall provide assistance to parents in understanding the State's academic content standards and academic achievement standards, State and local assessments, how to monitor a child's progress, and how to work with their children to improve student achievement.

    Title I Parent Involvement Plan

    Each school has a Title I Parent Involvement Plan which describes the school's plan for involving you and other parents in your child's education.

    Parent Information Brochure

    The Title I Parent Information brochure, which is sent home to each family, includes detailed information about Parents' Rights and the Title I program from the campus and district level.

    Title I School/Parent Compact

    Each school provides a Title I School/Parent Compact. The Compact is an agreement between the school, parents, and students to support each child to meet grade level expectations.

    Research shows that when parents know what their children are doing in school and help support them at home, children will be more successful.
