SCHOOL INFO

September 29, 2023

What is Title I?

Windham Central Supervisory Union (WCSU) receives federal funding to support schools throughout our SU, including Windham School. Title I funds are used to promote improved instruction for all students in our schools.  For example, funding is used to provide professional development to all teachers, behavioral support for students, to provide academics and intervention programs, and for community and family engagement.

Notes from the Nurse
