OSSE’s High-Impact Tutoring (HIT) Initiative funds tutoring programs at schools. Use the resources below to support your organization’s HIT programming.
OSSE HIT Guide
High-Impact Tutoring: Accelerating Student Learning by Expanding Opportunity describes the essential components of a strong HIT program and the commitment to continuous improvement that it takes to achieve the quality that students deserve.
Schools Eligible for OSSE-Funded HIT Supports
This spreadsheet identifies all schools in DC that are eligible for OSSE-funded HIT supports based on their listed percentage of economically disadvantaged students in the past three years. Schools with at least 70% of students designated as economically disadvantaged, or schools designated as Comprehensive Support and Improvement (CSI) schools in the past three years, are priority schools for the HIT Initiative.

Free Math Tutoring Lessons
CityTutor DC partnered with OSSE, DC Public Schools, and experienced local educators to develop math tutoring lessons for third, fourth, fifth and sixth grade students to support the implementation of high-impact tutoring (HIT) across the District. These lessons are aligned to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), are available at no cost, and are created for the growing pool of tutors who are not trained teachers or have limited math content knowledge. Math tutor curricula for seventh and eight grade is on the way!
