Child Left Behind - FREE TUTORING Supplemental Educational Services FOR GENERAL INFORMATION, PLEASE CALL 213-241-7900 One of the primary components of the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), signed January 8, 2002, requires that grade K-12 eligible students in specific schools be provided supplemental academic services such as tutoring. The NCLB legislation requires that school districts reserve 20% of their total Title One allocation to pay for compliance with the law. Therefore, all payment for FREE tutoring/supplemental educational services will be free to eligible students. Initial eligibility is determined by the school the student attends. If the school is in the second year or more of Program Improvement, then students who attend that school and who participate in the free/reduced meal program are eligible. Supplemental Educational Services are academic assistance or tutoring-type services offered before or after school, on weekends or during off-track time by state approved providers. The state approved over 250 organizations for 2007-10 to provide these services (prospective LAUSD providers click here to see the SES process flowchart). Forty-four providers chose to work with the students in the LAUSD in 2008-09. |
