Title I/Reading and Math Reinforcement

Reinforcement Programs for Reading and Math
The North Hills School District has reading and math reinforcement programs in all four elementary schools. The programs look the same for all grades at all schools and are funded by either the district or Title I monies from the state. Highcliff and West View are the two North Hills elementary schools eligible for Title I funding based on the number of student who qualify for free or reduced lunch.

The district also contracts with the Allegheny Intermediate Unit to provide reading and math support services at Holy Cross, Northside Catholic and Aquinas Academy for eligible students who live in the North Hills School District.
