Why So Many Intervention Programs Fail—And How OnYourMark Gets It Right
Every fall, you face the same reality: students returning to school with reading gaps that widened over the summer. Every data review reveals the same challenge: too many students still struggling with foundational literacy skills. Every budget meeting includes the same question: how do we provide effective intervention without overwhelming our already stretched staff and budget?
At OnYourMark, we believe every student is ready to grow—they just need the right support to get there. We're not another vendor offering quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions. We're your intervention partner, designed to seamlessly integrate with your existing systems while delivering the high-impact results your students deserve.
Beyond Tutoring: True Partnership
Here's what sets intervention partnerships apart from typical tutoring contracts: we're invested in your long-term success, not just session completion rates.
OnYourMark partners with you to:
- Extend your capacity without adding to your staff's workload
- Complement your existing literacy instruction with targeted intervention
- Provide data and insights that inform your broader instructional decisions
- Share helpful resources through ongoing partnership support
"It's not just that I get people who are good at building relationships," explains Dana Talley, former Chief Academic Officer at Lincoln Parish Schools. "It's that you get people who know the expectation is that you're going to build relationships, and OnYourMark is going to give you activities to help do that."
This partnership approach means your intervention isn't happening in isolation—it's strategically aligned with your school's literacy goals.
The Partnership Difference: Quality + Innovation
Exceptional Tutors as Your Extended Team
You've already learned about our rigorous tutor selection (1 in 10 acceptance rate) and intensive training (22+ hours pre-service). But here's why this matters for your partnership: these aren't temporary contractors. They're literacy experts who become invested in your students' success.
Our tutors complete ongoing professional development, receive weekly coaching, and participate in data reviews that inform instruction. When you partner with OnYourMark, you're gaining a team of specialists who understand both the science of reading and the art of building relationships.
Innovative Models That Evolve With You
True partners adapt and innovate together. That's why we've developed models like:
- The Magpie Blended Model: Combining adaptive technology with our live virtual tutoring for maximum impact

These aren't rigid programs—they're responsive solutions that grow with your district's needs.
