K12 Tutoring Earns Every Student Succeeds Act Level II Validation

Personalized online tutoring service K12 Tutoring recently announced that it has received Level II validation underneath the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), according to a news release. The independently validated study provides evidence of K12 Tutoring’s role in creating positive student outcomes through effective academic intervention and research-based solutions.

According to the news release, K12 Tutoring offers both teacher-assigned and high-dosage tutoring, connecting students with state-certified educators who produced personalized learning plants to meet individual students’ academic needs. Services include extra, advanced instruction for high-performing students and targeted support for students needing additional support.

“K12 Tutoring’s ESSA Level II validation is a testament to our unwavering commitment to delivering high-quality, research-backed tutoring solutions,” said Jennifer Moore, K12 Tutoring’s General Manager. “We understand the critical role that high-impact tutoring plays in student success, and we are proud to offer schools and districts a proven resource to help address learning loss and drive academic achievement.”

The news release reports that ESSA encourages schools and districts to implement evidence-based interventions for students. K12 Tutoring and edtech research company Intructure partnered to develop “an ESSA-aligned logic model and conduct an independent evaluation of its effectiveness.” The report found that students who participated in K12 Tutoring scored an average of 8 percentile points higher on the NWEA MAP Growth math assessment than a similar group of non-tutored peers.
