Canopy Tutoring

The Canopy Tutoring Program provides high-impact academic support in literacy and math for K–12 students across Louisiana. Designed to complement what students are learning in the classroom, the program uses research-based instructional strategies and high-quality curriculum aligned with state standards. Students work in small groups or one-on-one with trained Louisiana educators who deliver targeted instruction based on each learner’s needs. Sessions focus on building strong foundational skills—in reading and math—while reinforcing classroom learning.

How Districts Can Fund High-Quality Tutoring Now That ESSER Money Is Gone

High-quality tutoring has emerged as an important post-pandemic strategy for helping struggling students in public schools. Research finds that tutoring often results in substantial additional learning gains when delivered during the school day, in small groups with the same tutors and multiple times a week for at least 10 weeks. 

But this often comes with a substantial price tag — depending on the model and staffing approach, costs can range from $1,200 to $2,500 per student per year. During the pandemic, many districts relied on federal Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief funds to launch or expand tutoring programs, but these have largely expired.

Catapult Learning White Paper Demonstrates High-Impact Tutoring’s Effectiveness in Generating Measurable Academic Gains for K-12 Students

High-impact tutoring is now widely recognized as one of the most effective strategies for addressing learning gaps. Research from the National Student Support Accelerator (NSSA), the Annenberg Institute’s EdResearch for Recovery, and other national studies shows that frequent, small-group or one-on-one tutoring delivered by trained tutors using high-quality curricula consistently produces significant academic gains.

Philadelphia’s tutoring program shows promise but faces familiar obstacle: expanding it effectively

High-impact tutoring has emerged as one form that researchers have shown actually works — when done well.

Stanford University researchers have found that high-impact tutoring works when it is embedded into the school day, happens at least three times per week in small groups, and matches the same tutors with students as much as possible. The Stanford researchers also found that tutoring is most effective when schools use data to identify students’ needs, and when tutoring materials align with research-backed and state standards.
