Campus and district leaders attribute these outcomes to
academic gaps compounded throughout K - 12 and low levels of academic ownership and agency.Spring Branch leaders believe that shift to student - centered blended learning will improve the outcomes in both areas, therefore improving postsecondary readiness.
High - quality tutoring can meet each student at his or her individual level, 22 a level of differentiation that is impossible for even the most dedicated of teachers to provide.23 Essentially, every student with an educated, engaged parent has access to one - on - one tutoring at home, which is perhaps one of the reasons why homework
compounds the advantages enjoyed by middle - class children.24 For students who, for a variety of reasons, may not have access to that kind of
academic assistance at home, receiving more tailored instruction from their schools can help to level the playing field and close achievement
gaps.25
