Registration now open for Spring 2023 Math
Tutoring Corps
OKLAHOMA CITY (Oct. 28, 2022) - Registration is now open for the Spring 2023
session of the Oklahoma Math Tutoring Corps (OMTC), a high-dosage math tutoring
program for Oklahoma public school and public charter school students in grades 7-
9. There is no cost to participate.
The OMTC program provides 50-minute virtual tutoring sessions three times a week
for 12 weeks, in groups of no more than four students. The Oklahoma State
Department of Education (ODE) will provide any needed technology or internet
access, and tutoring schedules will occur during students' free time outside of the
school day.
The Spring 2023 OMTC session will take place Jan. 8 - April 15, 2023 (pausing for
spring break March 12-25). Click here to register. Deadline is Dec. 1. Students
currently participating in the Fall 2022 session do not need to register for the Spring
2023 session.
"The Oklahoma Math Tutoring Corps pilot program conducted in the spring of 2022
resulted in substantial gains for participating students," State Superintendent of
Public Instruction Joy Hofmeister said. "Although recovery will take time and a
multitiered approach, this investment in improved student outcomes is moving the
needle in the right direction and I encourage Oklahomans to take full advantage of
this opportunity.
Participation in the Oklahoma Math Tutoring Corps assisted eighth-grade students'
acceleration, growth - and recovery from pandemic-related learning loss - as 78% of
students who participated in the pilot program had 2022 assessment scores within the
same performance level as in 2021 or improved a performance level (remaining at the
same performance level is considered growth as the state's academic standards
increase in complexity each grade level).
Additionally, many students who participated in OMTC qualify for free and reduced
lunch; of these students, 81% maintained performance or increased performance,
which outpaced economically disadvantaged peers who did not take part in OMTC.
Live informational meetings will be held on Nov. 3 and Nov. 15 for families
interested in learning more about Oklahoma Math Tutoring Corps.
Thursday, Nov. 3 - 10 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Tuesday, Nov. 15 - 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.

In addition, the ODE has also created an Oklahoma Math Tutoring Toolkit, which
includes research-based resources created for the OMTC and provides
recommendations for school districts in designing and implementing a high-dosage
math tutoring program.
