A+ participants must perform a minimum total of 50 hours of unpaid tutoring or mentoring. For purposes of the program, community service is not considered to be an acceptable substitute for tutoring.

Tutoring must be performed in one (or more) of the public school buildings that are part of the Blue Springs School District in an approved program. Tutoring must be performed with Blue Springs public school students and supervised by a certified district teacher.

All tutoring must be approved by the A+ Coordinator and performed during the week before or after school. Students cannot work at sports camps, school carnivals, act as judges for competitions etc.

Tutoring time must be documented on the official BSSD A+ Tutoring Log. These logs are available in the A+ Office. No other record will be accepted. The participant is responsible for maintaining his/her tutoring log accurately, obtaining the necessary signatures and for submitting the log to the A+ Coordinator in a timely manner. No credit will be awarded for logs that are misplaced or stolen - no exceptions.

Before beginning to tutor, participants must enroll in the program and attend ONE A+ Tutor Training.
