What is EIP?
The Early Intervention Program (EIP) is one of Georgia's educational reform initiatives to improve student learning and academic success. The primary goal of this program is to offer immediate assistance and additional instruction to help students succeed academically in the areas of reading and mathematics. A student's EIP status is determined on a number of factors depending on what grade the student is entering.
Learners who qualify as EIP will receive a letter home in the next few weeks. Parents should read the letter, sign, and return it to school indicating that they are aware of their child's EIP status.
