HCOE’s Expanded Learning team supports the local grant consortium for ASES and 21st CCLC grantees. This includes ongoing Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI), grant reporting requirements, and professional learning opportunities. The Redwood AfterSchool Network (RAN) meets monthly and provides learning and collaboration opportunities for our grantees. As space allows, the meeting is also open to all Humboldt after school programs. Join us on the second Tuesday of every month. Contact Olivia Kernen at okernen@hcoe.org for more details.
The Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) provides funding for afterschool and summer school enrichment programs for transitional kindergarten through sixth grade.
“Expanded learning” means before school, after school, summer, or intersession learning programs that focus on developing the academic, social, emotional, and physical needs and interests of pupils through hands-on, engaging learning experiences. It is the intent of the Legislature that expanded learning programs are pupil-centered, results driven, include community partners, and complement, but do not replicate, learning activities in the regular schoolday and school year.
