The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education awarded a $6,515,398 Formula Grant to the Utah State Board of Education (USBE) under the Twenty-First Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) program (CFDA 84.287). The grant aims to provide academic enrichment opportunities for students, particularly those attending high-poverty and low-performing schools, by funding the establishment and expansion of community learning centers that offer a range of educational and developmental services outside of regular school hours.
As the prime recipient, USBE is distributing sub-awards to local educational agencies, charter schools, and community organizations across Utah to deliver tutoring, mentoring, homework assistance, academic enrichment, community service, and extracurricular activities. Key sub-awardees include San Juan School District, Utah International Charter School, and Utah State University, which are providing specialized educational and support services to students through this grant funding. The award period runs from July 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025.
