Historically, Tompkins, Golden Hills, and Jacobsen Middle School have qualified to receive Title I funding based on the information that was provided by families regarding their family size and income level. However, Tehachapi High School will now be added to the district's Title I school sites. In-order to maintain or increase funding levels, it is important that TUSD families participate in this survey.
In past years, the increased funding has been used to provide additional staff members such as the Learning Director, Intervention Teacher, and support staff. Additionally, the funding has provided engagement materials, intervention, and incentive programs that enhance district-funded programs.
