Abstract: In this investigation, the reading performance of Texas Grade 4 girls was compared by their enrollment or non-enrollment in Title I, Part A schools. Data were obtained from the Texas Education Agency Public Education Information Management System for all Grade 4 girls in Texas who took the State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness assessment in the 2016-2017, 2017-2018, and 2018-2019 school years. Statistically significant differences were established in all three school years. Girls enrolled in non-Title I, Part A schools outperformed girls enrolled in Title I, Part A schools in all three Reading Reporting Categories and in all three grade level standards. Recommendations for research and implications for policy and practice are suggested.
