Teacher experience & reliability
Source: federal Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC 2017-18 — the most recent vintage that publishes per-school teacher quality fields; the 2020-21 sweep had them suppressed). "Inexperienced" = teachers in their first or second year. "Chronic absence" = teachers absent 10+ days/year.
Federal Title I context

Source: NCES Common Core of Data, free/reduced-price lunch eligibility.

We don't claim to assert whether the district formally chose to enroll this school in Title I.
