Nebraska SMART pairs K–12 students with teacher education candidates from Peru, Chadron and Wayne State colleges for personalized, online tutoring in core subjects. Each campus has a coordinator who provides faculty oversight and ensures instructional quality. There are 10 tutors from Nebraska’s first college.
Since launching as a pilot in February 2024, Nebraska SMART has provided more than 1,660 tutoring sessions to students in rural school districts statewide.
“This is a perfect example of how the Nebraska Department of Education can partner with the Nebraska State College System to provide both student support and workforce development at the same time. This program has been successful in rural districts and it is exciting to offer the service to all Nebraska schools,” said Brian Maher, Nebraska education commissioner.
Nebraska Success Made Accessible Through Rural Tutoring (SMART) has expanded statewide. It allows every K–12 student in Nebraska access to one-on-one academic support from trained college tutors.
