The School Wide Title 1 Parental Involvement section of the Every Student Succeeds Act requires each Title 1 school to develop a written parental involvement policy that describes the means carrying out the requirements of School Wide Title 1. The school provides information related to parent programs and other School wide Title 1 activities.
