2024 MASA Fall Conference

Have you ever thought, “There is not enough time in the day to provide students all of the educational support they need to be successful?” EQPD tutoring uses highly trained tutors to support students where they are and scaffold content to grow students to expected levels. Tutoring is virtual and can take place anytime, anywhere. Students receive one-on-one support that often can not be provided during the school day. Throughout one-on-one sessions, tutors engage in relationship building with students to support them and be a partner that can make a positive difference in a student’s academic journey. Walk away from this session learning more about supporting students outside of the school day. Takeaways: 1. Benefits of implementing an after school, at home tutoring program. 2. Strategies to ensure successful program outcomes for an after school, at home tutoring program. 3. Resources for families to support their children in literacy and/or math.

Come see how Allen Park Public Schools and Wayne County RESA ISD teamed up to provide high-quality PD for Tier 1 literacy materials and instruction across the county. This partnership aims to bring the best in literacy education, ensuring every student receives the support they need. Discover the integration of instructional materials for the reading block, including skill building through the UFLI program and foundational knowledge. We combined UFLI with other Tier 1 resources to focus on the Michigan Literacy Essentials, giving teachers the tools to teach effectively and impact student outcomes. Initially started in one district, this partnership now helps other districts enhance literacy implementation. It offers professional learning and ongoing coaching to improve delivery and instruction, ensuring educators are well-prepared. By scaling this model, we improve literacy education countywide. Move beyond the reading wars and achieve the comprehensive literacy goals for your district! Takeaways: 1. Designing a literacy program that is scalable. 2. Partnering with an ISD or district to maximize resources. 3. Supporting staff with ongoing coaching and development.
