The Title I/LAP Program is an important partner in achieving Arlington School District's mission:  Arlington Public Schools educates all students, preparing and inspiring them to graduation and seek their full potential as lifelong learners. 

The purpose and goals of the federal Title I Program and the state Learning Assistance Program (LAP) are essentially the same. Both programs seek to improve the educational opportunities of students who are academically at-risk for mastering the material set forth within the state content standards. Both programs provide supplemental instruction; in effect, a "double dose" of instruction in the student's area of greatest need (reading or math). Overall, the rules governing Title I are more stringent than those for LAP.

LAP schools include Eagle Creek Elementary, Kent Prairie Elementary, Pioneer Elementary and President Elementary Schools.
