What KTH Scholars Is

Targeted Support.
Whole-Student Growth.

KTH Scholars is more than tutoring. The program combines structured academic intervention, consistent practice, student relationships, progress monitoring, and social-emotional support so students can strengthen skills while becoming more confident and independent learners.

Each partnership is built around the academic priorities, curriculum, student needs, and existing support systems of the school or organization.

KTH Scholars can incorporate evidence-informed academic curricula and intervention tools based on the needs of the partnership.

In the 2025–2026 literacy implementation, KTH used SIPPS to provide structured foundational reading intervention and monitor student skill development. The broader KTH Scholars model is intentionally flexible so academic support can be adapted to the curriculum, content area, age group, and goals of each partner.
