Supplemental
Educational Services
What are
Supplemental Educational Services (SES)?
Supplemental Educational Services (SES) are defined as tutoring and other supplemental academic enrichment services
that are in addition to the instruction during the school day.
These services, which are not provided during
the regular school day, must be of high quality, resea
and specifically designed to increase the academic achievement of participating students.
Title 1 of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) requires districts to arrange for the provision of
supplemental educational services for eligible students in schools that are in the second year or more
of the Title 1 School Improvement, Continuing School Improvement, Corrective Action, Plan to Restructure, or Restructure.
An eligible child is a child from a low-income family (free and reduced lunch students).
Supplemental Educational Services are selected by the parents of the eligible students
for the purpose of ensuring that eligible students increase academic achievement in reading, language arts, and math.
Who is
eligible for Supplemental Educational Services?
Only those students receiving free and reduced lunch and enrolled in a school identified for Title 1
continuing school
improvement (CSI), Corrective Action
(CA),
Planning for Restructuring (PR), or Restructuring (R) are eligible to be served.
If I recently requested School Choice for my child
and my child
is being transferred to another school,
may I also request Supplemental Educational
Services?
The law allows for Choice or Supplemental Educational Services.
