An Overview

The  Office of Title I annually invites Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE)-identified private schools to a consultation discussing an instructional program to support students in their buildings who have an academic need.

This program is designed to provide supplemental support in reading or math and is implemented in addition to the private school's existing academic program. This support is not designed to replace the private school's existing academic program.

After ongoing consultation, private school administrators determine participation in the Title I Equitable Services program for the upcoming school year.

All stakeholders work closely with each other to ensure program fidelity.
