21ST century community learning centers program

This $6.17 million Formula Grant was awarded by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education to the Idaho State Board of Education on July 1, 2021 for the Twenty-First Century Community Learning Centers program (CFDA 84.287). The grant provides funding through September 30, 2022 to support afterschool academic enrichment programs for students attending high-poverty, low-performing schools. Specifically, subawards were distributed to 46 local educational agencies and community organizations across Idaho to establish or expand community learning center activities at 64 sites. Subrecipients include school districts, nonprofit organizations, and universities that will directly deliver afterschool programs to students. The grant aims to provide academic support and enrichment opportunities to help underserved students meet state achievement standards in core subjects.
