Opportunities for School
Choice for Students
at Sullivan Elementary School
Title I
schools that have not made Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for consecutive
years are required to offer School Choice transfers to other corporation
schools that are not in School Improvement and have adequate space to
accommodate the students. If this is not possible, the corporation must seek
alternative schools for School Choice from a neighboring school corporation,
which may or may not be willing to accept interested students. The
corporation is required to set-aside 20% of the Title I grant for School
Choice and Supplemental Educational Services opportunities. In 2009-10, this
amount was $65,727.69.
For the
2011-12 school year, Sullivan Elementary School students are eligible to
request a School Choice transfer to Carlisle Elementary/Junior High School.
School choice is offered prior to the start of the school year to current
students and to new students at enrollment. For more information on Carlisle
Elementary/Junior High School, click the link below.

Free Tutoring Opportunities for Students at Sullivan Elementary School
Sullivan Elementary School students that are eligible for free or
reduced lunch and are considered “non-proficient” based on ISTEP+ and DIBELS
are eligible to enroll in a free tutoring program, known as Supplemental
Educational Services (SES). This program allows eligible students to receive
free tutoring and academic assistance in subjects such as Reading, English,
and/or Math in effort to assist these students in improving their academic
performance. These tutoring programs may be offered before or after the
regular school day, on weekends, or in the summer. The corporation is
required to set-aside 20% of the Title I grant for School Choice and
Supplemental Educational Services opportunities. In 2010-11, this amount was
$65,727.69. The Per Pupil Expenditure (PPE) amount allowed was $1,239.37.
