Title I Guidelines
Freiheit Elementary School
Title 1 Family Engagement Policy
2025-2026
Explanation of Title 1
Title 1 is a federally funded program designated to provide a high-quality education that will
ensure our students’ mastery of skills in order to meet the state’s high academic standards.
Research-based, supplemental instruction in reading, math, social studies, and science is
provided under Title 1 funds for students based on academic need. These funds are dispersed
to schools meeting certain qualifications based on eligible number of students qualifying for
the Free and Reduced Lunch Program.
General Expectations
In Accordance with Title 1 requirements, this document will serve as the written Family
Engagement Policy for Freiheit Elementary School, 2025-2026. This document has been jointly
developed and has been agreed upon by FES staff and families. It will be distributed to FES
families and the local community in a format that parents can understand, and it will be
distributed in Spanish upon request.
Engaging our Families
In order to provide our FES Families engagement opportunities, the following will be done by
our school:
An annual Title 1 meeting will be held to inform families of the documents that set forth the
expectations for Freiheit Elementary as well as the expectations of the families of FES
students.
Parent/Teacher conferences will be scheduled to provide parents with information on their
student’s progress as well as to provide an opportunity for parents to ask questions and/or
voice concerns regarding their student’s education. The campus teacher/student/parent
compact will also be discussed and signed by all parties at this time.
Provide timely information about school programs and give parents the opportunity to
participate in the planning, review and joint development of the Campus Improvement Plan
while being given the opportunity to submit any parent comments within the plan.
Provide flexible opportunities for parents to participate in meetings, activities, and parental
involvement. FES may provide services to assist parents in being involved in these
opportunities.
FES will continue to build upon the family and growing campus’ capacity for family engagement
by offering information to families regarding the standards of campus, district, and state
standards. Parents will also be given opportunities to receive education related to
communicating with teachers and how to monitor student progress.
In order to build student achievement, families will be provided materials and training during
events such as math and literacy nights where they will have an opportunity to engage in
take-home games with their student’s teachers and learn more about grade level
expectations.
FES will serv as a hub for parents on topics to assist families through programs by reaching
out through activities and other educational forums to encourage preschool readiness. EFS
will provide translation for parents if requested during these times. FES will educate our staff
in implementing parent programs and creating trusting relationships between families and
schools.
