Title II

Preparing, Training, and Recruiting Highly Qualified Teachers and Principals

For Fiscal Year 2025 Colbert County Schools has decided to transfer Title II funds to Title I. Title II funds are used for professional development and class size reduction. This decision was based on needs assessments used to determine the needs of the schools and county. These plans are available at each school, at the central office, or online. Funds will be used to provide faculty salaries and benefits, and professional development opportunities. The Alabama Regional In-service Center located on the campus of the University of North Alabama provides professional development opportunities. The Alabama State Department of Education provides training for central office personnel, who in turn train teachers and administrators at the local level.
