USDE Press Release: the Education Department issued new guidance that further clarifies the roles of states and districts in implementing supplemental educational services under No Child Left Behind, and features ideas for connecting parents to supplemental educational services (SES) providers, who offer free tutoring and other academic enrichment activities to students. The guidance provides new information, as well as clarifications and modifications to previously included topics. For instance, new information clarifies the steps that states and districts must take when a district is identified as "in need of improvement" and can no longer be a service provider; and revised language makes clear that some teachers can be hired by SES providers, even if they work in a school or school district that is in need of improvement.
