Description
Title I, Part D is administered by the Illinois State Board of Education’s Title Grant Administration Department under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, Section 1401, as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act. It provides financial assistance to educational programs in state-operated institutions and community day programs, and to school district programs collaborating with locally operated correctional facilities.
The program aims to improve educational services so children and youth in local and state institutions can meet the same challenging state academic standards and achievement expectations as other Illinois students. It also supports successful transitions from institutionalization to further schooling and employment. Dropout prevention and continued education are priorities, including support for students who have left school or are returning from correctional facilities or neglected or delinquent institutions.
