Title I -The purpose of Title I, Part A of Public Law 107-110 is to enable schools to provide opportunities for children served to acquire the knowledge and skills contained in the challenging state content standards and to meet the challenging state performance standards developed for all children.  

Title III- Responsible for the oversight of the language instruction of limited-English proficient and immigrant students. This is accomplished by:

• administering grant programs that help children develop proficiency in English and achieve high content standards;
• recommending policies and promoting best practices for meeting the needs of English language learners;
• strengthening collaboration and coordination among federal, state, and local programs serving English language learners; and
• monitoring funded programs and providing technical assistance that addresses outcomes and accountability.

Title IV - Student Support and Academic Enrichment (SSAE) program focuses on increasing the capacity of districts to provide all students with access to a well-rounded education, improve school conditions for student learning, and more fully utilize educational technology to improve the academic achievement and digital literacy of all.

The purpose of a well-rounded education is to provide an enriched curriculum and educational experience for all students. It includes programs and activities that integrate multiple academic disciplines. A well-rounded education starts with early learning opportunities that make time for exploration and continues with K-12 education that helps students make important connections between their studies, their curiosities, their passions, and the skills they need to become critical thinkers and productive members of society. In addition, a well-rounded education promotes a diverse set of learning experiences that engages students across a variety of courses, activities, and programs in subjects such as English, reading/language arts, writing, science, technology, engineering, mathematics, foreign languages, civics and government, economics, arts, history, geography, computer science, music, career and technical education, health, and physical education.

The second purpose of the SSAE program is to improve school conditions for student learning. When students are healthy and feel safe and supported, they are more likely to succeed in school. Generally, the SSAE program funds may be used for any program or activity that fosters safe, healthy, supportive, and drug-free school environments, including direct student services and professional development and training for school staff.

In addition to supporting a well-rounded education and safe and healthy schools, a portion of the SSAE program funds must be used for increasing effective use of technology to improve the academic achievement, academic growth, and digital literacy of all students. When carefully designed and thoughtfully applied, technology can accelerate, amplify, and expand the impact of effective practices that support student learning, increase community engagement, foster safe and healthy environments, and enable well-rounded educational opportunities. Technology can expand growth opportunities for all students while affording historically disadvantaged students greater equity of access to high-quality learning materials, field experts, personalized learning, and tools for planning for future education. Such opportunities can also support increased capacity for educators to create blended learning opportunities for their students, rethinking when, where, and how students complete different components of a learning experience.
