Publicly-Funded Tutoring Improves Student Test Performance
6/29/2007

A June 28, 2007 article from The Associated Press reports that, according to independent researchers for the U.S. Department of Education (ED), publicly-funded tutoring has improved math and reading test performance for low-income students. The tutoring is provided under the No Child Left Behind law, which is up for renewal in Congress this year. Researchers also found that, in schools that miss the annual benchmarks of the No Child Left Behind law, few students are opting to transfer to a different public school.

The article is available at the CNN.com Web site.
