Ohio will offer reading tutoring to students in grades K-3, reinforcing the state’s commitment to early reading. The tutoring program will prioritize districts that are identified as having low on-track reading scores for early learners and Reading Achievement Plans.
The Delaware Department of Education (DDOE) will provide reading tutoring for K-3 students. For the purposes of the States Leading Recovery (SLR) grant, the state will partner with the nonprofit tutoring provider Reading Assist to deliver high-dosage tutoring to students during the school day. Reading Assist recruits, trains, and embeds AmeriCorps members to serve as tutors, providing 1:1 tutoring to students scoring in the lowest 25th percentile for reading proficiency.
Through its High-Impact Tutoring Program (HITP) grant, the Colorado Department of Education (CDE) provides incentives for local education providers to implement effective tutoring to help students recover from unfinished learning due to the pandemic.
Using funds from States Leading Recovery, the Arkansas Department of Education (ADE) will provide reading tutoring to students in grades K-5. The state is building on a strong foundation, including comprehensive legislation that supports student literacy and requires a statewide tutoring effort, and early efforts to establish a tutoring corps.
