21st Century Community Learning Center Program
The New Hampshire Department of Education’s 21st Century Community Learning Center Program announces its 2007 competition for an anticipated $1,400,000. The program’s purpose is to raise academic achievement through the creation and expansion of community learning centers that provide students with academic enrichment opportunities as well as activities designed to complement their regular academic program during out-of-school hours. All schools with a minimum of 30% of the student population identified as recipients of the free/reduced lunch program by October 2006 are eligible to apply. Middle schools and high schools are eligible if the majority of the feeder elementary schools meet the eligibility criteria. Priority points will be awarded to schools and/or districts in need of improvement.
Applicants for 21st CCLC funds must demonstrate collaboration between a local educational agency (LEA) and one or more community-based organizations (CBOs), faith based organizations (FBOs) or other public or private entities, and must primarily serve students who attend schools with a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students. The lead agency may be the school, district, CBO, FBO or other organization, but must always partner with an eligible school. Please RSVP to attend the Bidder's Conference using the information provided in the timeline below.
