Consolidation of Funds is an ESEA encouraged funding approach that merges multiple federal funding sources with state and local funds, unlocking increased opportunities for innovation and flexibility at Title I schools. Georgia is a trailblazer in this domain, piloting Consolidation of Funds in 2016 with four LEAs and expanding the initiative to 46 LEAs and more than 400 schools. Drawing on nine years of practical experience, Georgia’s state leaders share an overview of Consolidation of Funds, discuss the logistics of implementation, and spotlight compelling success stories from Title I schools across the state. Join this webinar to explore how Consolidation of Funds fosters strategic synergy among federal, state, and local funds, positively impacting continuous school improvement efforts.
