Supplemental Services

Under the NCLB Act, schools that fail to meet their adequate yearly progress (AYP) targets for three consecutive years are required to offer students from low-income families supplemental services, tutoring, remediation or other educational interventions. Such services must be offered outside of the regular school day and must be designed to enhance student achievement. States are required to approve providers of supplemental services, both public school districts and private organizations, and monitor their services.

USDE: NCLB—A Road Map to State Implementation
This U.S. Department of Education publication is a user-friendly guide to help navigate the road ahead in education reform. It describes ways the Department—together with parents, educators and state and local policymakers—is making NCLB work for students and educators. The law sets the same requirements for all states, while recognizing that the paths they take to get there will vary. The road map breaks down a 670-page law into clear principles for success, and it recaps and frames how states have adapted those principles to raise student achievement. For specific information on supplemental services, refer to pages 20-21.
