More Time to Learn, More Social-Emotional Growth
Is before and after school enrichment part of your district's plan to accelerate learning in 2021 and beyond?
A growing body of evidence suggests that high-quality before and after school programs can help school districts accelerate learning, enhance SEL, and improve outcomes for at-risk students. These findings are underscored by the recently enacted American Rescue Plan, which allocates 20% of ESSER funding to comprehensive after school and summer camp programs.
More Time to Learn, More Social-Emotional Growth explores why enrichment programming should be a key component of your district’s strategy to overcome the impacts of COVID-19 in the months ahead.
