T4U
Beginning with the 2012-13 school year, Wisconsin's DPI will no
longer mandate NCLB Supplemental Educational Services. Instead,
supports and interventions will include expanded learning
opportunities for struggling students which may include tutoring and
other supports offered through strategic partnerships. Although the
administration of SES will no longer be required, MPS has chosen to
continue afterschool tutoring services with many of the same State
approved SES Providers during the 2012-13 school year. All state
approved providers will continue to be subject to monitoring and
evaluation requirements. MPS is collaborating with community
organizations, parents and business leaders to redesign the tutoring
program for 2013-14.
MPS's Tutoring 4 You (T4U) program will target 24 Focus schools
identified by Wisconsin's DPI. Schools that show large gaps in
reading, or mathematics scores, gaps in graduation rates between
subgroups, and/or low performance by high need subgroups; have been
identified as focus schools. The following schools have been
selected to participate in the T4U program.

During the 2012-13 school year, tutoring will take place in the
school. Tutoring will be available for students for (1) one
hour (2) two days per week for a total of 40 hours of tutoring
support. In addition, the class size ratio for tutoring sessions
will be one adult to a maximum of five students (1:5). Students will
be grouped by grade level and the individual goals for the learning
plans will be developed by the school with student and parental
input. Staff members employed as tutors will be highly qualified in
the subject area they will be teaching: Math or Literacy
