The Texas Education Agency bestows the prestigious “Title I Distinguished School” designation on identified Texas campuses due to their consistently strong academic performances while educating large populations of impoverished students during the three previous school years.

To qualify for this designation in Texas, a school must be a Title I campus with 40% or more low-income for the previous year, met adequate yearly progress in the last two years, earned the state’s highest accountability rating (exemplary) in the last school year and earned either an exemplary or recognized rating, which is the second highest rating awarded by the state, during the two previous school years.

Title I, Part A, is a federal program under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) that provides school districts with additional resources to help improve instruction in high-poverty schools and ensure that all children have equal opportunity to meet challenging State academic standards.
