Student Services

Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)

The federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), enacted in 1965, is the nation's national education law and shows a longstanding commitment to equal opportunity for all students.

ESEA authorizes state-run programs for eligible schools and districts eager to raise the academic achievement of struggling learners and address the complex challenges that arise for students who live with disability, mobility problems, learning difficulties, poverty, or transience, or who need to learn English.

Title 1 Targeted Services are available at the following district schools:

Board Policies

Students are eligible for pull-out intervention services based on their academic needs in reading and math indicated through universal screening assessments given three times of year. The assessments allow us to measure student progress and growth and examine student performance in comparison to both grade-level expecations and those of their peers within the district. Monitoring student progress throughout services allows us to continue to monitor and ensure that our programs and interventions are meeting the individual needs of identified students. Open communication between classroom teachers, intervention teachers and parents should occur to ensure all needs are being met to gain student success.

If there are any questions regarding the process and programs, please reach out to the District Coordiantor: Lily Moss, Assistant Superintendent, mossl@eht.k12.nj.us, 609-646-7911 ext. 1003.

Based on student performance through the Universal Screening process, students qualify for Title 1 Services. The letters now include student performance to better communicate the grade level expectation in comparison to student performance and indicative of the area of need for targeted intervention.
