Arkansas High Impact Tutoring Pilot Program

Did you know?

On March 8, 2023, Arkansas Governor Sarah Sanders signed the LEARNS Act into law and includes the Arkansas High-Impact Tutoring Pilot Program. This program provides approximately $20 million in grants to public school districts to implement high-impact tutoring programs in schools.

Eligible expenses in the Arkansas High-Impact Tutoring Pilot include, but are not limited to, hiring tutors, costs related to technology enabled tutoring, expenses related to improving the effectiveness of tutoring, and contracts with approved tutoring providers.

We are excited to announce that Stride Tutoring has been selected as a qualified, approved vendor. All funds in the grant must be spent during fiscal year 2024. Let us be your trusted advisor in navigating The LEARNS Act successfully.
