21st Century Extended Day Programs
A community learning center offers academic support and enrichment opportunities to students and their families during non-school hours (before or after school) and during the summer. 21st CCLC programs assist students in meeting state and local academic achievement standards in reading and mathematics, as well as providing opportunities for academic enrichment. Examples include drug and violence prevention, art, music, recreation, technology, and character education programs. Learning centers also serve the families of participating students through education and training opportunities such as family literacy programs.
