What is Title One
Title One is a federally funded program designed to help students succeed in
reading. Schools with a poverty rate above 40% may use Title One funds to
operate a "school wide program". Like the majority of schools in
Buncombe County, North Windy Ridge school is a Title One school meaning
all students receive targeted reading instruction. Our specific
program is called EPIC which stands for "Everyone Participates in a
Challenge". Each student at North Windy Ridge receives at least 30
minutes of small group reading instruction tailored to their individual
needs. In addition, Title One funding allows our school to improve our
teaching supplies, train our teachers, as well as provide after school
tutoring and parent outreach.
