This case study features insights from Uplift Education, a charter network in Dallas–Fort Worth, and their experience piloting and expanding OnYourMark’s virtual early literacy tutoring.
Leaders Nick Erber (Director of Learning Acceleration) and Imani Thomas (Primary Dean at Uplift Luna Preparatory) reflect on how OnYourMark helped fill critical reading gaps for K–2 students—especially in the wake of COVID-related disruptions. Through a pilot supported by a randomized controlled trial, Uplift students receiving OYM tutoring made significant gains in letter recognition, decoding, and confidence.
The case study highlights:
- Why Uplift chose OYM as a literacy partner
- How they embedded tutoring into the school day
- Measurable student growth and engagement outcomes
- The importance of buy-in, trust, and educator partnership
- What made OnYourMark “the single unqualified success” of their tutoring efforts
