Tutoring

Academic Support and Acceleration Program for Tutoring

Tutoring is designed to support interventions and accelerations available in both face-to-face and virtual environments. Offering extra help and support, especially in the early stages of a student’s education, can provide a path towards academic success, diminish the likelihood of behavior problems, and increase the likelihood of high school graduation. The Virginia Beach City Public Schools Academic Support and Acceleration Program will ensure that:

  • All stakeholders are aware that students have 24/7 access to some form of tutoring support throughout the day, evenings, and weekends;
  • Tutoring opportunities may occur virtually (synchronously or asynchronously) or face-to-face;
  • Highly qualified staff are hired and trained to academically support students;
  • Frequent progress monitoring ensures the effectiveness of all tutoring programs;
  • Tutoring is aligned to specific skills from the Virginia Standards of Learning and the local curriculum;
  • Tutoring provides both intervention and acceleration support.
