The 2026–27 Title I 1003 School Improvement Grant (SIG) Basic funds are provided to support the implementation and monitoring of strategies identified in the 2026–27 District Comprehensive Improvement Plan (DCIP) and School Comprehensive Education Plan(s) (SCEP).

LEA allocations are determined using the following new weighted funding formula based on identification status and student enrollment characteristics within identified schools: $20,000 per Target District; $20,000 per school identified for Comprehensive Support and Improvement (CSI), Additional Targeted Support and Improvement (ATSI), and Targeted Support and Improvement (TSI); $500 for every student in the district that attends a school identified for Receivership; $400 for every student in the district that attends a school identified for CSI-B 1 ; $300 for every student in the district that attends a school identified for CSI-A; $200 for every student in the district that attends a school identified for ATSI; $100 for every student in the district that attends a school identified for TSI; $100 for every student with disabilities (SWD) in the district that attends a school identified for CSI, ATSI, or TSI; $100 for every English language learner (ELL) in the district that attends a school identified for CSI, ATSI, or TSI; $100 for every economically disadvantaged student in the district that attends a school identified for CSI, ATSI, or TSI; and, $100 for every homeless student in the district that attends a school identified for CSI, ATSI, or TSI.
1 “CSI-A” refers to the subset of non-Receivership schools that are either newly identified for CSI based on the performance of the All Students group or schools re-identified for CSI because a subgroup that is not the All Students group is identified for CSI. “CSI-B” refers to the subset of non-Receivership schools that have been re-identified for CSI based on the performance of the All Students group.
