Click the link below for a list of SES providers/tutoring programs, a description of each program, qualifications of the tutors, and information about each program’s effectiveness. Services will be offered at the location indicated. The provider list also indicates the programs that serve students with disabilities or limited English proficiency. Please note that these are the only providers for Recovery School District at this time.
When deciding which tutoring program is best for your child, consider these questions:
When and where will the tutoring take place (at school, community center)?
How often and for how many hours in total will your child be tutored?
What programs, by grade levels and subject areas, are available for your child?
What type of instruction will the tutor use (small group, one-on-one, or the computer)?
What are the tutor’s qualifications?
Can the tutor help if your child has disabilities or is learning English?
Is transportation available to and from where the tutoring will take place? Please, note that transportation to the tutor and to your home may not be provided.
There are a limited number of spaces in the SES program, so every child that applies may not be able to enroll. Every parent that is interested should apply for their child. If more students request tutoring than can be served through available funding, priority will be given to lowest-performing students from low income families per compliance with federal law.
Enclosed is an application for your convenience. Applications are also available at your child’s school, at the Recovery School District Central Office located at 1641 Poland Avenue, and may also be obtained from our website at www.rsdla.net.
Tutoring services will begin October 17, 2011 and the application period is September 2, 2011 to October 7, 2011. In the event that spaces remain for additional students, a second round of applications will be accepted in January 2012.
