    Summary

    The purpose of the 21st CCLC program is to establish or expand community learning centers that provide students with social, cultural and recreational enrichment opportunities along with activities designed to complement students' regular academic programs and reduce achievement gaps. Community learning centers provide a range of high-quality services to support student learning and development, and offer families of these students'' literacy services and related educational development activities. The purposes of the 21st CCLC grants include:

    1. Provide opportunities for academic enrichment, including providing tutorial services to help students, particularly students who attend low-performing schools, to meet the challenging state academic standards
    2. Offer students a broad array of additional services, programs, and activities, such as youth development activities, service learning, nutrition and health education, drug and violence prevention programs, counseling programs, arts, music, physical fitness and wellness programs, technology education programs, financial literacy programs, environmental literacy programs, mathematics, science, career and technical programs, internship or apprenticeship programs, and other ties to an in-demand industry sector or occupation for high school students that are designed to reinforce and complement the regular academic program of participating students
    3. Offer families of students served by community learning centers opportunities for active and meaningful engagement in their children's education, including opportunities for literacy and related educational development

    Absolute Priority will be given to applicants that propose to serve students who attend school buildings:

    • With a high concentration of low-income students (50% or more of students in the building qualify as low-income); or
    • Serving students attending schools eligible for schoolwide programs under section 1114 under Title I, according to the 2017-2018 school year.

    Additional points may be awarded for each competitive priority that is met by the applicant. For proposals serving multiple centers, at least 50% of the school buildings to be served must meet an individual competitive priority to receive additional points. Additional points will be awarded for proposals that:

    • Target students who attend schools that have mid-high poverty rate (60% or more of the building students qualified as low-income in 2015-2016 
    • Have never received a 21st CCLC grant from the Idaho State Department of Education. These points will only be awarded if all of the school buildings identified in the application are new to the 21st CCLC program.
