SES stands for Supplemental Educational Services and is a federally funded program that provides the opportunity for students to receive tutoring at no cost to their families. School District 148 is responsible for honoring the choices that parents make regarding SES Providers. SES Providers must be state approved and based upon their hourly cost they provide tutoring on a weekly basis, in efforts to improve student achievement. In order for your child to be eligible to receive supplemental educational services, he/she must come from a low-income family and attend a Title I school that is in its second year of school improvement, in corrective action or in restructuring. As there maybe a limited number of spaces available in the SES program, the district cannot guarantee that all students will be able to participate. For more information please contact Tobin Mitchell, Acting Director of Information Services at 708-841-2445.
