Title I
A student who reads at least 21 minutes a day encounters 1.8 million words a year, whereas a student who reads less than 1 minute a day, sees only 8,000 words a year. Put in another way, the first student sees more words in two days than the second reads all year!
(Cunningham & Stanovich, 2001)

PARENTS RIGHT TO KNOW
The Buckeye Local Schools wishes to notify all parents in all buildings that they may request information regarding the professional qualifications of their children’s classroom teachers:
· If the teacher has met State qualification and licensing criteria for the grade level and subject area taught;
· If the teacher is teaching under emergency or temporary status in which State qualifications or licensing criteria are waived;
· The teacher’s baccalaureate degree major, graduate certification, and field of discipline;
· Whether the student is provided services by paraprofessionals and if so, their qualifications.
The district also provides the following notifications to parents of students in Title I schools as necessary:
· Timely notice that the student has been assigned to be taught, or has been taught for four or more consecutive weeks, by a teacher who is not “highly qualified”;
· Information on the level of achievement of the student in each of the state’s academic assessments.
