What is tracking?
Our STEM tracking program offers a unique and crucial service designed to help parents navigate the world of tracking in public schools. We understand that the concept of tracking may be unfamiliar to many parents, but we firmly believe that once they are informed about its benefits, they would want their child to be tracked as early as possible.
In many public school districts, tracking involves placing students into specific classes or groups based on their standardized test scores and class grades, often starting as early as the 4th grade. In some schools, students may start being tracked into Algebra 1 as early as 6th grade, while Biology tracking can begin as soon as 8th grade.
Unfortunately, the current trend in public education is moving towards a one-size-fits-all approach, which can hinder the growth of top-performing students in mixed-ability groups. Many schools are scaling back on individualized instruction, potentially impacting a child's ability to achieve the standardized test scores necessary to qualify for advanced tracked courses.
At Elite STEM Tutors, we recognize the importance of providing individualized instruction tailored to each child's unique abilities and aspirations. Our approach revolves around creating a personalized instruction plan for your child, taking into account their current level of performance and desired academic goals. Our certified teachers, well-versed in Pennsylvania standards and the STEM tracking protocol in local school districts, will focus on the key content areas tested on standardized exams and entrance assessments.
Our dedicated team at Elite STEM Tutors is committed to partnering with parents to ensure their child's successful entrance into advanced tracked courses. We work closely with you and your child, offering personalized support and guidance throughout the process. From creating a targeted instructional plan to helping navigate conversations with schools, we are here to make your child's academic goals a reality.
We firmly believe that starting early in advanced courses is essential for a student's long-term success. Research shows that students who are placed in challenging courses early on are more likely to develop a strong foundation in STEM subjects and are better prepared for future academic and career opportunities. Being in advanced tracked courses not only enhances a student's knowledge and skills but also instills confidence and a passion for learning.
Don't miss the opportunity to give your child the best chance to excel in STEM fields. Enroll in our STEM Tracking program today and witness the transformation as your child reaches their full potential with the help of our experienced tutors and personalized approach. Together, we can pave the way for a bright and successful future in the world of STEM.
