About Federal Programs

The Federal Programs Department is responsible for administering, monitoring and providing technical assistance for Title programs under the Every Student Succeeds Act.

The purpose of federal education program funding under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is to provide LEAs and their schools with supplemental financial resources and assistance in order to ensure equitable access to a high-quality education, regardless of student economic status or other equity factors. Under a variety of recent state-granted flexibility structures (waivers), all Georgia school LEAs have the opportunity to pursue flexibility in exchange for agreeing to measures that will ensure that all students receive an equitable and high-quality education from effective educators. Federal program funds in Georgia supplement and support the programs and the strategies that help all students thrive through these existing LEA flexibility structures and systems.
