AFTER SCHOOL AND SUMMER PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
This free program supports the creation of community learning centers that provide academic enrichment opportunities during non-school hours for children, particularly students who attend high-poverty and low-performing schools. The program helps students meet state and local student standards in core academic subjects, such as reading and math; offers students a broad array of enrichment activities that can complement their regular academic programs; and offers literacy and other educational services to the families of participating children.
Each eligible entity that receives an award from the state may use the funds to carry out a broad array after-school activities (including those held during summer recess periods) to advance student achievement. These activities include:
Remedial education activities and academic enrichment learning programs, including those which provide additional assistance to students to allow the students to improve their academic achievement
Mathematics and science education activities
Arts and music education activities
Entrepreneurial education programs
Tutoring services, including those provided by senior citizen volunteers, and mentoring programs
Programs that provide after-school activities for Limited English Proficient (LEP) students and that emphasize language skills and academic achievement
