At PPHS, we believe in unlocking the full potential of every learner, celebrating their strengths, and guiding them towards their brightest future.
High Ability Plan
PPHS recognizes that some students perform at or show the potential to perform at an outstanding level of accomplishment in the core academic areas of language arts and mathematics. These students are found in all socio-economic, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds, and PPHS recognizes the need to identify such students through systematic, ongoing procedures.
The high-ability program provides a supportive learning climate that will enrich learning so students can maximize their academic potential and develop emotionally and socially in order to be contributing members of society.
Title I refers to a federal education program in the United States that aims to improve the academic achievement of disadvantaged students, particularly those in schools with a high percentage of students from low-income families. The program is part of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), which was first enacted in 1965 and has been reauthorized several times, with the most recent reauthorization being the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) in 2015
The primary focus of Title I is to provide financial assistance to schools with a high concentration of students from low-income families. The funds allocated through Title I are intended to support educational programs and services that help these students meet academic standards and close the achievement gap between them and their more advantaged peers.
