Overview: Federally Funded Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Programs in Bedford County Schools
The No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001 is a federal law that included several grants (Title Programs) for states and school districts. Our system receives some of these federal funds from 4 Title Programs: Title I-A, Title II-A, Title II-A, and Title VI.
Funds fro these programs are intended to ensure that all children have the opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach proficiency on challenging state academic standards and assessments.
