Omaha Public Schools Multiple Activities Program: An Evaluation, ESEA Title I, September 1972 to August 1973.
Texley, Lloyd C.; Dvorak, Ronald S.
The purposes of the Multiple Activities Program, funded under Title I of the 1965 Elementary Secondary Education Act, were: (1) to supplement the instructional program for educationally disadvantaged children by developing a curriculum and techniques, specifically in reading, which would raise their achievement level commensurate with their ability; and, (2) to support this program with the type of services needed to make it successful. The High Intensity Learning Centers for Reading for grades three to twelve continued operations. Primary High Intensity Learning Centers in Reading were developed to provide a supportive reading skill development program for grades one to three. Reading aides contibued to meet the reading problems of children in grades one to three by tutoring children as their reading problems were identified. Project READ and Math furnished valuable supplementary materials. The Individualized Study Center for grades seven to nine served students who were not able to function in the regular school program by providing individual instruction and direction for their future. All other activities in the Title I program are directed toward providing supportive services for children in Title I instructional programs. This reinforcement is designed to give each student a greater opportunity to achieve success in school.
