What is EIP?
Children start school at a designated chronological age, but differ greatly in their intellectual development and experience base. The Early Intervention Program (EIP) is designed to serve students who are at risk of not reaching or maintaining academic grade level. The purpose of the Early Intervention Program is to provide additional instructional resources to help students who are performing below grade level obtain the necessary academic skills to reach grade level performance in the shortest possible time.

Involving Parents in the Early Intervention Program
According to Georgia Law and State Board of Education rule, the school shall provide a ten calendar- day notice for an opportunity to conference with the student’s parents or guardians and the student to discuss the student’s performance and the role of the Early Intervention Program. Parents play a major role in helping the student to achieve. In fact, the parent is the primary teacher. The attitude that parents convey to their children about the importance of learning is a major variable in student success. Studies of individual families show that what the family does is more important to student success than family income or education. This is true whether the family is rich or poor, whether the parents finished high school or not, or whether the child is in preschool or in the upper grades.
On January 8, 2002, President Bush signed into law the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). This new law gives us a framework to reform American education. The framework consists of the President’s four basic education reform principles: stronger accountability and results, local control and flexibility, increased choices for parents, quality teachers in every classroom; and teaching methods based on scientific research that have been proven to work. The following resources are designed to help inform parents, families, and members of the community about the progress on current education laws and important tools so that we may work together to improve and increase academic achievement and help our students to succeed:
