Our SES Program
Innovative Educational Programs, LLC presents a Supplemental Educational Service (SES) program with a specialty in Reading/Language Arts and Mathematics. We provide effective after-school instruction to those students who need it most. We work in schools large and small, in urban areas and in suburban areas. We develop programs for children in kindergarten through 12th grade. Best of all, we have a record of success and a roster of parents, teachers and principals who see students succeed and thrive thanks to IEP's free, innovative educational programs.
High Student Attendance Rate!
IEP gets children excited about school and learning. Students attend because for many of them our program has given them their first real taste of academic success. Our program also offers events and awards as motivational incentives.

Assistant Principal; Bronx, New York
I am extremely satisfied with the IEP tutoring program. Last marking period, for the first time, my daughter made the Honor Roll. This made me very proud. My daughter always works very hard, however, it wasn't until she started attending tutoring that I saw some major improvements."
Parent; Irvington, New Jersey
"Innovative Educational Programs provided supplemental educational services for 48 students who were in need of intervention instruction. The materials were highly motivating and addressed the individual needs of the students. The components of the program , including an individual student plan and regular progress/attendance reports, proved to be most effective in raising student achievement. Regular communication with parents also impacted positively on student success. Students who participated in the IEP program have shown significant academic gains as indicated by progress monitoring and benchmark testing. As the lead teacher, I was very impressed with the level of support and genuine concern for the students shown by the Program Coordinator. Her immediate response to recommendations and requests contributed to the positive effects of the program. IEP has been a rewarding experience for students, parents, and staff."
