Title I Information

November 21, 2025

Dear Parents:

Our school has been identified as an official Title I school. Rosehill Elementary qualifies for 
this federal program, which provides extra math and reading support for students by a formula based 
on the percentage of students who qualify to receive free or reduced lunch benefits in the school.

Because we qualify for these special resources, the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires us 
to meet specific criteria referred to as Annual Measurable Objectives (AMO) as defined by the state 
of Kansas and determined by a formula that considers:

●  The performance of third through sixth grade students on the Kansas math assessment
●  The performance of third through sixth grade students on the Kansas reading assessment

Federal guidelines mandate that Title I schools provide parents the right to know. As a parent you 
have the right to know:
● The qualifications of your child's classroom teacher, such as:
o  Whether or not the teacher is certified in Kansas
o Whether the certification is emergency or provisionary
o  The teacher’s college major and if he/she has advance degrees
o  Whether aides or paraprofessionals are providing services to your child and, if so, his/her 
qualifications

● How your child performed on the Kansas reading and math assessments

I will be able to share with you information regarding your child’s performance on the state 
assessment after the state has processed scores. Information about our staff credentials and our 
test scores are public information and will be listed in our state report card.

Thank you for your continued support of our school. Together we can make a very positive difference for your child. We are working hard to provide the best possible education for your family. Please call the school and set a time to meet with your child's teacher or me if you have questions at any time during the school year.

Respectfully yours,

 

 

21 De Noviembre Estimados padres:
Nuestro colegio ha sido identificado como una escuela oficial para Titulo I (Title I). La escuela 
califica para este programa federal, que provee soporte extra para los estudiantes en matemáticas y 
lectura, y desarrollo profesional para los maestros, por una formula basada en el porcentaje de 
estudiantes que califican para recibir en la escuela almuerzo gratis o rebajado.

Debido a que nuestra escuela califica para estos recursos especiales, el Acto Every Student 
Succeeds (ESSA) requiere que tengamos que satisfacer cierto criterio referido como Objetos Medidos 
Anuales (AMO), definido por el estado de Kansas y determinado por medio de una fórmula que 
considera lo siguiente:
●  El rendimiento de estudiantes en los grados 3 a 6 en los exámenes de evaluación de matemáticas y 
lectura del estado de Kansas

Las normas federales requieren que las escuelas que son Titulo I provean a los padres el derecho a 
saber. Como padre, usted tiene el derecho a saber lo siguiente:
● Las cualificaciones del maestro de su hijo, como:
o  Si el maestro está certificado por el estado de Kansas
o Si la certificación es de emergencia o provisional
o  La licenciatura que el profesor sacó en la universidad, o si tiene un titulo avanzado
o  Si los asistentes o asistentes profesionales están proveyendo servicios a su hijo, y, si están, 
cuáles son sus cualificaciones
●  Cómo hizo su hijo en los exámenes de evaluación de matemáticas y lectura del estado de Kansas
Esa información será compartida con usted tan pronto como está disponible. Información acerca de 
las calificaciones del personal y resultados de exámenes son información pública y estarán 
incluidos en nuestro reporte estatal.

Tendremos una reunión de información de Título I para padres en (la fecha). El personal del 
distrito estará disponible para dar una vista general de qué Título I significará para (nombre de 
la escuela) y contestará cualquier pregunta que usted tenga.

Muchas gracias por continuar su soporte a nuestro colegio. Juntos podemos hacer una diferencia 
positiva para nuestros hijos. Estamos trabajando duro para proveerle la mejor educación posible a 
su familia.
Respetuosamente,
