Title I Regulations and Guidelines for Local Educational Agencies, 1975-76. (State of Oklahoma, Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, P. L. 89-10 as Amended by P. L. 93-380).

Based on the recognition that educationally deprived children can achieve at a "normal" rate when provided comprehensive, innovative program services by a competent staff, compensatory education under the 1965 Elementary and Secondary Education Act Title I (ESEA Title I) aims to increase the academic achievement of eligible project participants. Intent of Title I is to raise the achievement level of students from low-income families who are classified as educationally deprived. Title I, as amended, provides for grants to local educational agencies in a state. This report presents Title I regulations and guidelines for local educational agencies in Oklahoma. These are excerpted from the ESEA Title I, U.S. Office of Education Regulations, State law, other State Board of Education regulations, and through experience and acceptable practices in the implementation of this and other educational programs in Oklahoma.
