Referencing:  Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Application

Federal funding is allotted to school districts throughout Maine through the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Application.  Our district completes the application process, requesting funding for supplemental teaching services (Title l) and professional development opportunities for teachers (Title ll).  Funding for these projects is based on evidence of student needs using district and school data.  

You are invited to attend the July 10th RSU #71 School Board Meeting at the Troy Howard Middle School at 6:30.  You will be provided with the opportunity to share feedback on the use of federal funds in our district.  

If you are unable to attend and would like to share feedback, please feel free to contact me through e-mail. (lmiller@rsu71.org)
