Post Detail

Pulaski County Schools is committed to helping students succeed through its Extended School Services (ESS) program. ESS provides additional instructional time outside the regular school day to support students who are academically at-risk.

Program Highlights:

• Eligibility: Students are referred based on academic need. ESS targets students who are unlikely to achieve proficiency or transition successfully without additional instructional time and support.
• Services Offered: Tutoring and academic intervention activities are tailored to individual student needs.
• Schedule: ESS sessions are held before or after school, on weekends, or during school breaks. Services are provided outside regular instructional hours unless a daytime waiver has been approved by the Kentucky Department of Education.
• Cost: There is no cost to families. ESS is funded through the Kentucky Department of Education.

Parent Communication:
Parents will be notified if their child is recommended for ESS participation. The notice will include the reason for referral, the services offered, and how progress will be monitored. If a parent disagrees with the recommendation, they may request reconsideration through the school’s ESS coordinator.

Contact Information:
For more information, please contact your child’s school, and ask to speak with the School ESS Coordinator.
