Supplemental Educational Services

Supplemental Educational Services (SES) provide additional academic instruction, such as tutoring, to increase student achievement. Under provisions of the No Child Left Behind Act, a school district with a school identified as needing improvement for three consecutive years is required to offer SES to eligible students attending the school. A list of Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) approved providers can be downloaded from this page.

The application period to become an approved SES provider opens at least annually. For-profit and not-for-profit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations and school entities (unless identified on the AYP list) may apply.
