21ST century community learning centers program

The Oregon Department of Education received a $10,226,837 Formula Grant from the Department of Education Office of Elementary and Secondary Education under the 21ST CENTURY COMMUNITY LEARNING CENTERS program (CFDA 84.287). The award will fund the provision of academic enrichment opportunities for children, particularly students from high-poverty and low-performing schools, outside of the regular school day. The funding will be used to establish or expand community learning centers that provide a range of academic, recreational, and enrichment activities. Through sub-awards, the Oregon Department of Education will distribute these funds to 25 school districts and non-profit organizations across the state to deliver these services locally. Key sub-awardees include school districts such as Central 13J, David Douglas, and Centennial, as well as community organizations like the Boys & Girls Club of Lebanon, to implement the learning center programs.
