The EAP initiative provides extended learning opportunities and is designed to boost student achievement and help all students succeed by utilizing evidenced-based instructional models. The funding provides tutoring in Math and Reading for students in grades 7-12. Tutoring is mandatory for all students who do not score Proficient or Advanced on the PSSA Reading Assessment and/or PSSA Mathematics Assessment AND/OR do not meet proficiency standards on the Performance Series Reading and/or Mathematics Assessment. Students are required to participate in a minimum of 45 hours of tutoring in each subject in which they do not meet the proficiency requirement. Tutoring is provided during the school day, during study halls and after school. In 2010-11 the Fort Cherry School District received $26,345.
