Title I is the largest federal aid program in the United States. Title I funding is utilized to provide supplemental aid to campuses serving Title I students for two types of programs: targeted assistance or school-wide. One Texas public middle school applied to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) for the school-wide Texas Title I Priority Schools (TTIPS) grant to address low student academic achievement in reading and low overall campus rating. This program evaluation examines the middle school (grades 6-8) campus's TTIPS program using Stufflebeam's CIPP model. Components of the evaluation targeted reading achievement and overall campus rating (context), implementation of an intervention model, staff development, curriculum design, and leadership training. The study examined ways to achieve TTIPS objectives (context and input), and program implementation accountability measures (process), along with quantitative data from Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR) (product). The product portion of this study described what changes, if any, occurred during the three intervention periods: pre-intervention (2012-2013 & 2013-2014 school years), during-intervention (2014-2015, 2015-2016, & 2016-2017 school years), and post-intervention (2017-2018 & 2018-2019 school years) as they relate to student achievement in reading and overall campus rating. For the three intervention periods, changes in 6th through 8th grade reading achievement, Hispanic reading achievement, economically disadvantaged reading achievement, and overall campus rating were described. All data collected for this study were analyzed descriptively. The study's findings revealed a 5% improvement in campus-wide reading achievement. Additionally, the campus's TEA-issued rating moved from "Improvement Required" to "Met Standard" following the third and final year of the program's implementation.
