RE:	Authorization to File Title I Application for the 2007-08 School Year

As required by No Child Left Behind legislation, the Local Education Agency (LEA) is required to submit a North Carolina Title I Application on an annual basis in order to receive those federal funds. The Title I application outlines the district and individual Title I school plans that have been developed based on the identified needs of students to be served.

RECOMMENDATION: The administration recommends that the board authorize the Superintendent to sign and file the 2007-08 Title I Application.
