Teacher Qualifications

  • Columbus Humanities Arts and Technology Academy receives Title I funding and is included under the regulations of the “No child Left Behind Act” (NCLB) that was signed into law by President Bush on January 8,2002. NCLB requires:–Increased accountability for states and school districts.–Greater choice for parents, especially those in low performing schools.–Greater flexibility for state and local education agencies in the use of federal funding.
  • Under NCLB, parents have a right to request professional qualifications of their children’s teacher(s) or paraprofessionals(s).  This is to inform you of your right to ask for the following information about your children’s classroom teachers or paraprofessionals.–Whether Ohio has licensed the teacher for the grades and subjects he or she teaches.–Whether the teacher is teaching under emergency or other provisional status through which Ohio licensing criteria have been waived.–The teacher’s baccalaureate degree major and whether the teacher has any advance degrees, and if so, the subject of the degrees.–Whether the child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications.

In School Title 1 Program Overview

  • Depending on the child’s individual needs, a plan of service will be determined to help your student achieve his or her academic goals.
  • After all student data is gathered, the Title 1 instructor then groups students according to these individual needs and provide a consistent weekly program in which we will work for 20-30 minutes at least 3 times per week.
  • This assistance may be in the form of a pull out of the classroom situation.  It might also be that the Title 1 teachers pushes into the regular classroom and provides assistance and guidance in that form.

Discharging a student from In School Title 1 Support

  • Once a student has met all the goals that have been set for them at 80% or better they are retested and discharged from the program.
  • Classroom teachers as well as the Title 1 teacher then closely monitor their progress in class to be sure that they do not fall behind.

Title 1 Parent Expectations

  • It is important for you, as parents and caregivers, to be onboard with your child’s academic goals.  In order to ensure the most successful and productive learning environment possible, we at CHATA will require the following Steps for Success:
  • 1. Always check your child’s backpack for homework assignments.
  • 2. Read at home with your child. Just 10 minutes a night exposes your child to 280 minutes a month of valuable literacy experiences!
  • 3. Please return your child’s backpack with the materials and homework that was assigned.
  • 4. Volunteer to help CHATA.  We can always use help at school events, during after school clubs and sporting events, as well as in the classroom. Get involved!  We’d love to have your support!

Our Commitment

  • We are working hard at CHATA to make sure that every child is on target for success, and we thank you for your efforts at home
