Overview
Brief Program Summary: Tutoring/literacy and math services will be provided to raise the
academic performance of school aged youth to a level consistent with state education standards.
Services shall be provided in a manner that is age and developmentally appropriate, and
consistent with the child’s academic ability and learning style, interpersonal characteristics and
special needs. Children will be connected as appropriate with both formal and informal community
supports, services and activities that promote their literacy skills. The child’s characteristics such
as race, culture, ethnicity, language and personal history including child abuse and neglect will
be considered when choosing or designing program interventions, materials and curriculum. The
provider will develop an education plan to address the child’s literacy and math needs.
A variety of activities and lessons shall be available to afford choice. Activities and lessons shall
promote literacy skills and academic development and should demonstrate well-planned, flexible
and responsive services. Services should include regular use of external resources such as
libraries, museums and community educational sites. Services may also incorporate the use of
video games and computers. The use of television and videos shall be strictly limited to a minimal
portion of the child’s participation. Video games, computers, television and videos should be age
and developmentally appropriate, supportive of the child’s educational goals, and the child should
be monitored at all times when using these resources. The provider will develop a plan to engage
the child, caregiver, and educator in the process. The plan will accommodate persons who are
difficult to engage if necessary. The provider will clearly communicate and coordinate the child’s
education plan goals with the caregiver and educator and will periodically and frequently give
updates and review progress with them.
