Nebraska SMART Virtual Tutoring
Posted on 08/05/2024

Nebraska SMART (Success Made Accessible through Rural Tutoring) is a free virtual tutoring program for K-12 students who attend NRCSA  (Nebraska Rural Community Schools Association) member school districts, school districts in Educational Service Units 1, 4, and 13, and other select smaller rural public-school districts. Teacher education candidates from Chadron State, Peru State, and Wayne State Colleges remotely tutor students through an online tutoring platform.

Nebraska SMART was established by the Nebraska State College System in partnership with the Nebraska Department of Education which awarded an Innovation Grant to the State Colleges to develop a rural tutoring program. Chadron State College, Peru State College, and Wayne State College collaboratively offer this free online tutoring program to K-12 students in rural Nebraska.

Parents must initially register their student(s) before they can receive tutoring services. Once registered, students or parents on behalf of students can schedule a tutoring session at least 24 hours in advance. Students can also instantly be connected with a Tutor by requesting an on-demand session during tutoring hours. The Parent Guide shows how to create an account, schedule a session, join on-demand sessions, and more.
