The report is part of the Personalized Learning Initiative (PLI) — a large-scale research and implementation effort to understand whether high-dosage tutoring can be scaled across diverse school districts and delivered in ways that effectively accelerate student learning. It builds on decades of tutoring research showing strong effects when tutoring is frequent, individualized, and aligned with core instruction.
The PLI partners include districts such as Chicago Public Schools (IL) and Fulton County Schools (GA), as well as the New Mexico Public Education Department and a mid-sized California district, with a focus on tutoring delivered during the school day and supported by federal ESSER funds.
