21st CCLC is a federally-funded competitive grant program designed to support the establishment of community learning centers serving students in high need school buildings. Funding is provided by the Federal government through the No Child Left Behind Act and is administered by the Nebraska Department of Education.
These grants are awarded to projects that offer a broad array of services, programs and activities during non-school hours or periods when school is not in session (such as before-and after-school or during summer recess). The three goals for this grant program are to: improve student learning performance in one or more core academic areas, increase social benefits and positive behavioral changes, and increase family/community engagement to support student education.
