The effectiveness of Title I funding : an improvement science quantitative study.

After more than 50 years, the supplemental resources afforded through Title I have yet to eliminate the academic achievement gap between low socioeconomic students and their advantaged peers in fourth grade reading scores in k-12 education. As the largest educational intervention of the United States, Title I is designed to close the achievement gap between students living in poverty and their advantaged peers. The practical intervention chosen for this study will abide by the purpose and method of improvement science; however, the researcher will modify the PDSA framework to serve the outcome of this intervention. The researcher will conduct one PDSA cycle that will consist of two phases that exceed 90 days (about 3 months).
