Title I Annual Meeting Information

What does the law say?
Section 1116(c) POLICY INVOLVEMENT.—Each school served under this part shall—(1) convene an annual meeting, at a convenient time, to which all parents of participating children shall be invited and encouraged to attend, to inform parents of their school’s participation under this part and to explain the requirements of this part, and the right of the parents to be involved.

What does the non-regulatory guidance say?
D-5. What meetings must schools hold to inform parents about Title I, Part A programs and parental involvement? 
Each school served under Title I, Part A must convene an annual meeting, at a time convenient for parents to inform them of their school’s participation in Title I, Part A programs, and to explain the Title I, Part A requirements and the right of parents to be involved in those programs.  In order to keep parents informed, schools must invite to this meeting all parents of children participating in Title I, Part A programs and encourage them to attend.  Schools must offer a flexible number of additional parental involvement meetings, such as in the morning or evening so that as many parents as possible are able to attend.
