The Comprehensive Instructional Program is a locally conceived and funded project designed to improve instruction in all areas in the elementary grades throughout the school system, through diagnostic teaching and inservice training for teachers. The services of the Title I, Elementary Secondary Education Act project were utilized to meet the needs of the most educationally deprived pupils in the school. These services included those of a lead teacher, a part-time--20 per cent of a week--social worker, and three educational aides. Under the Emergency Employment Act of 1971, one educational aide was assigned for this school. This person performed similar duties to those of the Title I educational aides. The Career Opportunities Program (COP) is a training program designed to provide educational opportunities for capable persons from low-income communities who perhaps otherwise would not have pursued careers in education. Two of the Title I educational aides assigned to this school are COP participants, and therefore are pursuing a planned program of study leading toward professional certification. The Project Success Environment program at this school was a pilot program which was initiated to test the effectiveness of the success technique as it might be applied in any inner-city elementary school.
