Abstract: The American Rescue Plan (ARP) provides funding for
implementing comprehensive, evidence-based programs to ensure resources
respond to students' academic, social, and emotional needs and address
the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on student populations. Using
resources provided by the ARP, States, districts, and their partners
can use out-of-school time (OST) to address the disproportionate impact
of COVID-19 on students, families, and their communities. Out-of-school
time programs, which occur before or after the regular school day or
outside of the regular school year, can include a wide range of
activities, including comprehensive afterschool or summer-learning and
enrichment programs, vacation academies, work-based learning programs,
youth development programs, and experiential or service-learning
programs.
On July 14th, 2022, the U.S. Department of Education, along with
the Afterschool Alliance, AASA--the School Superintendents Association,
the National Comprehensive Center at Westat, the National League of
Cities and the National Summer Learning Association, launched the
Engage Every Student Initiative designed to ensure that every student
who wants a spot in a high-quality out-of-school time program has one.
In the Fall of 2023, the U.S. Department of Education and the five
partnering organizations designed the Engage Every Student Recognition
Program, which aims to recognize (1) non-profit organizations working
in collaboration with school district/local education agencies (LEAs)
or (2) municipalities or local government entities working in
collaboration with school district/local education agencies (LEAs) that
engage K-12 students in high-quality afterschool or summer learning
programming, with high-quality being defined as meeting students'
social, emotional, mental, and physical health, and academic needs and
addressing the impact of COVID-19 on students' opportunity to learn.
