High-impact tutoring RFP

CitySchools Collaborative (CSC) is proud to release a Request for Proposals (RFP) for high-impact tutoring (HIT) providers to provide HIT services for the upcoming school year (2026-27). Since 2021, CitySchools Collaborative’s coalition of tutoring providers including university partners, national organizations, local nonprofits, and LEAs has reached more than 36,000 students.

CitySchools Collaborative’s mission is to catalyze high-impact tutoring and strategic talent models to serve thousands of students, improving student well-being, accelerating academic performance, and enhancing flexible staffing systems in schools. Our work is driven by our core values: equity, impact, partnership, possibility, and grace to co-design a public education system to serve and empower all children.

CSC is seeking proposals for the following services in public and public charter schools in the DMV region:

  • Math High-Impact Tutoring Service Providers (K-12): Washington, DC
  • Literacy High-Impact Tutoring Service Providers (K-8): Alexandria City, VA, Arlington, VA, Fairfax County, VA, and Baltimore, MD

The HIT Service Providers selected must deliver students with tutoring aligned to the National Student Support Accelerator’s Tutoring Quality Standards. CitySchools Collaborative will provide financial support, training and consulting resources, data support, and thought partnership for selected HIT Service Providers. CitySchools Collaborative’s current available funding is $3,365,000 and may be distributed among 20-30 HIT Service Providers, if selected, and LEAs. CSC will accept submissions on a rolling basis through July 17, 2026.
