Title 1

The Title I program has been a part of Dennis-Yarmouth's educational services since 1975. We offer remedial services in Reading Recovery, Reading, and Mathematics. Depending upon our budget, which is funded by the Federal Government.

Title I works with small groups of children, or in the case of Reading Recovery, with one child at a time.

If a child is in Title I for reading, then Title I reading is in addition to the reading the youngster receives in the regular classroom. In other words, it is a supplemental program.

All of our elementary schools are School Wide Title I Schools. This means that all the children in our elementary schools are Title I students, and all the teachers are Title I teachers. The specialists work with those children in the greatest need based on district assessments.

  • If your child is is in Title I Reading, we expect you to read with your child for 30 minutes each evening.
  • If your child is in Title I mathematics, we expect you to spend time helping your child learn his mathematics facts.

We are here to help you. If you ever have any questions, please feel free to call your child's Title I teacher or call or email the Title I Coordinator, Sherry Santini at (508) 398-7620.

If we are unable to answer your questions you may do further research at the MA DOE or the Federal Department of Education
