Funding resources for educators

Title I provides funds to schools to ensure that all children have an equal opportunity to receive a high-quality education and meet challenging state academic standards. Title I programs target schools with a high number of children from low-income families.

IXL's standards-aligned content is adaptive and scaffolded to ensure that students at any level can work towards skill mastery.

• Title I, Part A - Improving Basic Programs Operated by Local Educational Agencies
• Title I, Part C - Education of Migratory Children
• Title I, Part D - Prevention and Intervention Programs for Children and Youth who are Neglected, Delinquent, or At-Risk

The purpose of Title II is to increase academic achievement by improving teacher and principal quality. This is done by increasing the number of highly qualified teachers, principals and assistant principals in classrooms/schools through professional development, support for new teachers and other like activities.

Our Professional Learning Services team empowers educators to maximize their impact on student learning with personalized professional development. Our comprehensive content helps teachers prepare effective lessons, and IXL Analytics provides the tools to differentiate instruction and assess student progress.

Title III programs help ensure that children with limited English proficiency, including immigrant children, become English proficient and meet the same challenging academic content and achievement standards as their English-speaking peers.

IXL has comprehensive English language arts skills for pre-K through 12th grade. IXL also offers audio support in English for all math skills up to 8th grade, English language arts skills up to 5th grade, and science and social studies skills up to 5th grade.

Title IV supports programs that foster a safe, drug-free learning environment, uphold academic achievement, and involve parents and communities.

IXL is often used as an engaging activity in before-school and after-school programs. In one California elementary school, a before-school IXL Math lab raised 4th grade standardized test scores by 23 points.

• Title IV, Part A - Student Support and Academic Enrichment
• Title IV, Part B - 21st Century Community Learning Centers

Rural schools in each state have access to the following programs: the Rural Education Achievement Program (REAP), the Rural and Low-Income Schools (RLIS) program, and the Small, Rural School Achievement (SRSA) program. These programs are designed to assist rural school districts in using federal resources more effectively to improve the quality of instruction and student academic achievement. These programs provide eligible districts with greater flexibility in using formula grant funds that they receive under certain state administered federal programs.

Title VI supports efforts to meet the unique educational needs of American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian students to promote their success on challenging academic standards.

IXL's standards-aligned content is adaptive and scaffolded to ensure that students at any level can work towards skill mastery.

The program supports an office for coordination of education of homeless children and youths in each state. Under ESSA, districts that receive a Title I, Part A allocation are required to reserve a portion to support the education of homeless students in non-Title I, Part A funded schools. Authorized uses of MV subgrant and Title I, Part A set-aside funds include:

• Tutoring, supplemental instruction, and enriched educational services that are linked to the achievement of academic standards.
• Professional development for educators and student services personnel to heighten program awareness.
• Academic services offered outside the normal school day, during the summer, and/or holiday breaks.

IXL is often used as an engaging activity outside of the normal school day, including before-school and after-school programs and during the summer. In one California elementary school, a before-school IXL Math lab raised 4th grade standardized test scores by 23 points.

IDEA is a federal act that provides disabled children with a "free appropriate public education" designed to prepare them for further education, employment, and independent living.

IXL supports students at any level with adaptive and scaffolded content that builds skill mastery. IXL provides educators with the tools to assess student progress and has been implemented in special education and RTI programs with great success. Read a case study

The first of 3 rounds of funding, districts have the flexibility to spend their ESSER funds in multiple ways such as assessment programs, instructional materials, software, hardware, professional development, teacher salaries, and summer-learning activities. ESSER I explicitly states that funding can be spend on “planning and implementing activities related to summer-learning and supplemental after-school programs, including providing classroom instruction or online learning during the summer months and addressing the needs of students from low-income households, students with disabilities, English Learners, migrant students, students experiencing housing insecurity, and children in foster care.”

ESSER II funding can be leveraged for a wide range of activities, including all uses permitted by ESSER I as well as initiatives associated with measuring and remediating learning loss and efforts to ready schools facilities for reopening.

Districts that receive funding reserves must use at least 20 percent of their total ARP ESSER allocation to address learning loss, again through evidence-based interventions, such as summer learning or summer enrichment, extended day, comprehensive after-school programs, and extended school year programs.

IXL's flexible platform fits with every type of learning environment, whether your students are at home, in the classroom or taking a hybrid approach. Address learning loss and accelerate learning for all students, including low-income students, students with disabilities, English language learners, and more.
