Built Intentional to Improve Testing Outcomes
Rapid 2-Week Launch
GROW is designed to move quickly from approval to instruction so students begin accelerating within weeks — not months. When assessment timelines are fixed, speed and execution discipline matter.
- Expedited custom program design
- Proactive tutor staffing and scheduling
- On-site rollout support
- Clear launch timeline aligned to testing calendar
Defined 6–8 Week Acceleration Cycle
GROW operates within a structured instructional window built to drive measurable proficiency gains before benchmark or state assessments. This is not open-ended tutoring — it is targeted acceleration.
- Start and end dates prioritized around testing windows
- Focused standards selection aligned to assessment priorities
- High impct 3x/week cadence
- Designed to impact measurable outcomes within one cycle
3x/Week Small-Group Instruction
Students participate in consistent, small-group sessions with the same assigned tutor over the course of the program. Relational continuity builds instructional momentum.
- 3:1 - 4:1 student-to-tutor ratio
- Student cohorts of similar need
- Live, virtual and in-class sessions for minimal disruption
- The same scheduled highly-qualified and trained tutor - not rotating independent contractors
Custom Curriculum & Pacing
Instruction reinforces what students are learning in class, accelerating proficiency rather than introducing disconnected remediation. Alignment better ensures learning transfers from tutoring to testing.
- Standards-aligned scope and sequence
- Integration with district pacing guides
- Reinforcement of priority skills tied to assessments
- Coordination with instructional leadership where needed
Real-Time Progress Visibility
Districts have visibility into participation, delivery, and skill progression during the cycle — not just after it ends. This ensures clarity during implementation, not just retrospective reporting.
- Attendance and session tracking
- Tutor feedback on qualitative student performance
- Ongoing progress insights
- Data that informs instructional adjustments when necessary
