Title I

Tucson Youth Development/ACE Charter High School

All ESSER III-funded interventions will be actively monitored by LEA and school administration to ensure they address learning loss, provide the intended additional credit recovery, and provide supports to students for their mental health and social/emotional wellness. Our LEA is comprised of students from low-income, and/or minoritized populations, and/or English Learner households. Our efforts at all times, but particularly during the recovery from COVID-19, must therefore be focused on the wellbeing of these populations.

An evidence based, extended school year program will be implemented to address learning loss interventions. This program will ensure that such interventions will respond to students' academic, social, and emotional needs and address students who are experiencing homelessness.

West Valley Arts and Technology Academy, Inc.

Funds will be used to increase student support staff to provide more targeted instruction in small groups. Groups will be determined by data to identify the most at risk students and their academic needs. Teachers will use a push in and pull out service model based on student needs. Funds are also used for transportation to ensure students have access to in person learning. The Dean of Students will serve as a bridge between the school and families. Their role will include bringing outside resources in for families, as well as helping them navigate how to best support their child.
