As Georgia’s largest district, GCPS faced the same realities confronting districts nationwide:

• Persistent gaps in Math and Reading achievement
• Heightened needs among both general education and special education students
• Pressure to ensure that every intervention investment produces measurable academic gains

GCPS needed more than a vendor—they needed a partner who could:

• Deliver high-impact, Tier 2 tutoring aligned with district curriculum
• Demonstrate clear, documented growth in student proficiency
• Operate within an Outcomes-Based Contracting (OBC) model tied to measurable results

Aligned & Targeted Instruction

• Tutoring aligned to GCPS standards and instructional priorities
• Focused support in foundational literacy and numeracy skills
• Adapted for both general and special education students

High-Dosage, Relationship-Rich Support

• Recurring sessions embedded into the school day
• Consistent tutors to build trust, engagement, and continuity

Real-Time Progress Monitoring

• Frequent checks for understanding and growth
• Data shared with school leaders to adjust instruction quickly

The result: a tightly integrated intervention layer that amplified—not duplicated—GCPS’s existing MTSS/RTI efforts.

Mathematics Achievement

• 14–18 percentage point increases in proficiency across all grade levels served.

Reading Achievement

• 12–15 percentage point increases in proficiency in grades K, 1–7, and 9–10.

These gains represent real movement in student achievement, proving that high-impact tutoring can shift proficiency trajectories at scale.

Start with Clear, Shared Outcome Metrics

• Proficiency growth targets were defined at contract launch.
• Both GCPS and TOD had a common definition of success.

Use Real-Time Data to Drive Instruction

• Ongoing progress monitoring gave full visibility.
• Instructional strategies adjusted based on real data, not year-end surprises.

Link Service Delivery, Attendance, and Payment

• Funding tied directly to outcomes.
• Attendance, tutoring minutes, and growth metrics used to validate invoices.

Automated, Outcomes-Linked Billing

• Payments tied to verified attendance and outcomes.
• Invoices reflect actual service delivery and performance.

Integrated Attendance & Outcomes Verification

• Session logs, attendance, and achievement data are unified.
• District leaders gain a clear line of sight from tutoring minutes to growth.

This ensures districts don’t just hope for impact—they can verify it.

• Proven double-digit proficiency gains in Math and Reading.
• Scalable Tier 2 tutoring across schools and students.
• True outcomes-based partnership model.
• Integrated systems providing transparency and accountability.

TOD is ready to partner with you.

Pine Springs Preparatory Academy is a multi-campus K–12 charter organization serving a diverse student population in Holly Springs, North Carolina.

As the school system expanded, leadership needed a scalable solution that would:

• Maintain high-quality classroom coverage across four campuses
• Support teacher and staff retention by reducing burnout related to chronic coverage gaps
• Free leaders from the daily burden of sourcing and managing substitutes

The organization sought a partner capable of providing professional, reliable substitute educators who could uphold instructional expectations and school culture.

Prior to partnering with Teachers On Demand, INC, Pine Springs Prep faced challenges common in many school systems:

• Inconsistent substitute availability, especially on high-need days
• Leaders spending excessive time arranging last-minute coverage
• Disruptions to student learning when substitutes were unfamiliar with routines and curriculum

With four campuses serving grades K–12, the school needed a centralized, predictable substitute solution capable of supporting long-term staffing plans.

1. Centralized, System-Level Management

• TOD managed recruiting, screening, onboarding, and deploying substitutes.
• Leaders gained a single, accountable partner rather than multiple substitute pools.

2. Quality and Fit, Not Just Availability

• Substitutes selected for professionalism, readiness, and alignment with school culture.
• Educators prioritized who could maintain lesson pacing and support classroom norms.

3. Consistency for Students and Staff

• Substitutes intentionally re-assigned to familiar campuses and grade bands.
• The role elevated from “day-of coverage” to trusted instructional support.

Since 2019, Pine Springs Prep has hired 16 substitute educators provided by Teachers On Demand, INC as permanent employees.

Better-Informed Hiring Decisions

• Leaders observed substitutes in real classrooms before offering full-time roles.
• Reduced hiring risk through extended, authentic evaluation.

Stronger Culture and Retention

• New hires already understood school culture, systems, and expectations.
• Smoother onboarding and greater likelihood of long-term success.

Continuity for Students and Families

• Familiar substitutes transitioning to permanent roles supports stability.
• Protects learning environment and relationships already built.

Stabilized Coverage Across Multiple Sites

• A single, performance-driven partner ensures consistent coverage.

Leadership Time Reallocated to Instruction

• Less time on emergency coverage means more time for coaching and planning.

Embedded Talent Pipeline

• 16 substitutes successfully transitioned to permanent school roles.

Elevated Standard for Substitute Instruction

• Substitutes positioned as professional educators, not babysitters.

• A reliable, professional substitute workforce
• A proven talent pipeline with permanent staff conversions
• A partnership mindset aligned to instructional and operational priorities

• Managing multiple campuses and grade spans
• Seeking to stabilize substitute coverage
• Interested in building a sustainable pipeline of mission-aligned educators
