Huffman: A handful of states and the nation’s capital offer a road map to improvement in student learning.
Launched in 2024 with support from the Walton Family Foundation, the State Implementation Fund addresses a critical challenge in public education: ensuring that strong policies translate into consistent, scalable improvements for students.
The free tool provides states, school districts, and vendors with tools and best practices to monitor high-dosage tutoring implementation.
Absent new state funds, many districts will likely be looking for programs to trim or eliminate so they can keep tutoring.
Through the SLR grant, the state will initially pilot with four school systems to launch and scale effective tutoring.
The grants have been awarded by Accelerate’s States Leading Recovery program, which is focused on helping states adopt evidence-based tutoring models and address academic gaps by ensuring students receive effective individualized instruction.
