Indian Education Tutoring Scholarships
Anoka Hennepin Indian Education offers limited tutoring scholarships
each trimester students participating in our program
Purpose: To focus on filling skill gaps in the areas of math and reading. Filling skill gaps rather than providing homework help will provide students with the foundation they need and help support their long-term academic success as they move through elementary, middle school, and high school.Each trimester a limited number of scholarships are available to students (grade 1-12). Through partnership with Sylvan Learning Center, we are able to offer fifteen (15) full and six (6) partial scholarships, allowing students to participate in 25 hours of tutoring for their scholarship trimester.Families who opt for partial scholarships will pay half the tutoring cost at a discounted rate. The cost is $550 up front per trimester.To bring students to grade level reading, priority is given (up to 7 spots) to 1-5th grade students who are below grade-level. Additionally, these students may have the opportunity to continue tutoring each trimester.Scholarships will be awarded via a random drawing of the registrations turned in during the enrollment period. Once the scholarship limit has been reached, we will keep a running list of students on a waiting list. These students on the waiting list will be first in line for the upcoming trimester to ensure they receive tutoring. They may also be the first to receive a tutor if a student currently receiving tutoring is dropped from tutoring.
Scholarship recipients will be notified by the selected tutoring service. Non-recipients will be contacted by their Indian Education Advisor and placed on the waiting list.**NOTE: We are currently not partnering with Yellow Parachute Learning Center.
