FACE Title I

The Title I Team supports parent engagement in Title I schools by collaborating with principals and parents to ensure compliance with Title I funding requirements. Additionally, we ensure program offerings are accessible in location and language to promote equity across Parent University and training sites.

Parent Board of Governors (PBG)

The Parent Board of governors is composed of 13 parent members from CPS Title I schools serving two year terms. The PBG serves as an advisory body to the Title I Team and the District, including The Office of Student Protections, Safety and Security, Equity, and Family and Community Engagement. To learn more about the PBG contact titleone@cps.edu

Parent Advisory Councils (PACs)

Parent Advisory Councils (PACs) empower parents to serve as partners in the education of their children at schools that receive Title 1 funding. Each academic year, schools establish Parent Advisory Councils (PACs) to bring together parents/legal guardians, teachers/staff, and community stakeholders to work with their school principal in the planning, design, implementation, and evaluation of the Title I Program.

Parent Collaboratives

Parent Collaboratives are network-based parent meetings facilitated by the Family and Community Engagement Specialist Team grounded in building the partnership between the district and parents from Title I schools as well as connecting families to critical information and resources.

Parent Collaboratives meet monthly, bringing together parents and community members from Title I schools within each network-region to achieve these goals:

• Provide parents with updated and relevant district data to better inform them of the status of their individual schools
• Connect parents with both citywide and CPS departmental resources to help foster their leadership skills and their engagement in the learning process
• Deliver both need-based and research-based workshops to ensure we are empowering and servicing schools
• Help parents create partnerships with educators, students, and other parents to increase the social, cultural, and human capital in their schools.
