Description:
The 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) grant program provides opportunities outside of the regular school day for academic enrichment to help students meet state and local performance standards in core academic subjects. This report summarizes the results of the Center for Research in Educational Policy's (CREP) evaluation of the 2011-2012 Virginia 21st CCLC programs. The purpose was to determine whether the federally-funded 21st CCLC programs were meeting Virginia's program objectives by: 1) improving student academic achievement in reading; 2) improving student academic achievement in mathematics; and 3) providing opportunities for parental education. An overview of the success of centers in achieving supplemental objectives is provided in Appendix A. (author abstract)
