Supplemental Educational Services

 

Under No Child Left Behind, Elgin Middle School is offering free tutoring in reading, math or science to students who receive free or reduced lunch meals. SES is a requirement of any Title I campus in Stage 2 or above of mandated improvement and it provides extra academic assistance for eligible children to increase achievement for the TAKS test. The tutoring must be held outside of the regular school day by state approved providers and must be of high quality, research-based, and specifically designed to increase student academic achievement. SES is NOT homework assistance. The tutoring may be held in various locations, such as the middle school, on-line, or a location determined by the provider and parent.

 

As the parent you may choose:

  1. WHO -- Select a tutoring provider from the attached list of state approved providers who have agreed to serve Elgin Middle School.

  2. WHAT -- Reading, Math or Science

  3. WHERE -- Between you and the provider

  4. WHEN -- Before school, after school, weekends, intercession, etc.

The process to enroll your child in SES is relatively simple:

  • Review the provider list

  • Select 3 providers

  • Complete the enrollment form

  • Return the enrollment form to the office at school

All costs are paid by the school district. If the number of students exceeds the amount of money the campus has available, the district must give priority to the lowest-achieving students who meet the eligibility criteria.

 

If your child was enrolled the first week of school, you will receive a parent packet in the mail. Additional SES parent packets are available in the campus office and central office.

 

Please contact Kathy Hernandez, Special Programs Administrator, at (512) 281-3434 x1233 if you have any questions.
