FEDERAL PROGRAMS
The purpose of Federal Programs is to ensure that all children have a fair and equal opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach, at a minimum, proficiency on challenging state academic achievement standards and state academic assessments by:
- administering all federal funds
- providing technical assistance related to federal program funds to schools in Blount County, and
- assisting schools in developing, revising, and implementing their school-wide continuous improvement plans
Receiving federal funds allows our school system to implement research-based initiatives that supplement and enhance the school system's outstanding educational programs. Most importantly, federal funds provide needed services to enrich the lives of our students.
