Title I Charter Schools

Charter schools are public schools subject to the accountability requirements of Title I.

For the 2020-21 school year, the APS school district is the LEA (Local Education Agency) for eighteen Title I charter schools.

Title I of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is the largest federal assistance program in our nation’s schools. ESSA, as reauthorized by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), ensures that all children have significant opportunities to obtain a high-quality education and reach, at a minimum, proficiency on rigorous academic achievement standards.

All APS Title I charter schools are implementing Schoolwide Program Plans for the 2020-21 school year. All Public Schools and Charter Schools in New Mexico were required to develop a NMDASH 90-Day Plan during the 2019-20 school year. The 90-Day Plan is also the Title I required Schoolwide Plan. The Schools' Title I Budgets will support the Focus Areas in the 90-Day Plan.
