The two eligibility requirements for tutoring are: 

  1. low-income households, qualifying for free or reduced lunch

  2. below grade level performance in reading, writing, or spelling

We serve students who attend Durham, Chapel Hill, Chatham, Orange, and Wake County public schools. Students may be referred to the program by family members, guardians, teachers, counselors, principals, psychologists, social workers or other school personnel.

We do not require that our students meet the discrepancy criteria used by the state of North Carolina to determine eligibility for learning disabled (LD) services in public schools.
