I am excited to share that has partnered with for all 6-12th grade students! Paper Education is a platform where students have access to an online tutor 24/7!

With Paper, students can log in and receive assistance in any of their rostered classes within minutes! Students enjoy it too because the format is one they recognize: messaging! Students log in, click the area they would like support in, and they are greeted with a chat/messaging-like format where they will interact with the tutor. As the teacher, you will have access to how your students are using Paper through the number of sessions, essays they have uploaded, and their last active session. If you are a 6-12 grade student in TUSD, check out Paper today!
