The workshop scheduled for January 5th, in F.A.R. volume 47/211 is being rescheduled for January 27th. The purpose of this rule development is to establish a tutoring program in which eligible high school students are trained to tutor students in kindergarten through grade 3 in schools identified on the RAISE list, instilling in those students a love of reading and improving their literacy skills. School districts that wish to participate in the tutoring program must recruit, train and deploy eligible high school students. Participating high school students will be trained in effective reading tutoring practices and content, based on evidence-based practices and aligned to the Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.) English Language Arts (ELA) standards. High school students who provide at least 75 hours of tutoring under the RAISE program will be designated as a New Worlds Scholar with a pin from the Florida Department of Education. The rule will outline minimum training criteria and processes for verifying tutoring hours of high school students for the designation of a New Worlds Scholar, as well as other requirements relating to a RAISE tutoring program.
