Dr. Homework is partnering with the Arkansas Department of Education to support parents and students!
The Arkansas Division of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) has launched the Arkansas Literacy Tutoring Grant Program, a new program that will provide thousands of families up to $500 vouchers which can be used towards literacy tutoring services for eligible K-3 students.
How does it work?
How do I apply?
Step 1: Parents of qualifying students should have received a letter from their students’ public or open-enrollment charter school, informing them of their eligibility. If you have questions about this letter or did not receive a letter and believe your student qualifies, please contact your school’s literacy coach. If your school doesn’t have a literacy coach, you can email ade.tutoring@ade.arkansas.gov.
Step 2: Complete the Literacy Tutoring Grant Program Registration Form which is available here. You will need to reference the letter you received from your student’s school. If you have more than one qualifying student, you will need to complete additional registration forms. Instructions on how to access your student’s account will be included in the Welcome Email you receive from ClassWallet after the registration is processed and your student’s eligibility has been determined.
Step 3: Once registration has been approved and you receive the welcome email, you will log-in to your students ClassWallet account where you will see Dr. Homework on the list as an approved tutoring provider.
