3. Our objectives for today:  Understand the concept of “Expanded Learning”  See how it can help your schools achieve their goals for students  Give you an action plan for creating a conversation about Expanded Learning opportunities in your educational community

5. What is Expanded Learning? Expanded Learning refers to before and after school, summer, and intersession learning programs Expanded Learning should not be seen as a simple extension of the school day. Rather, it’s an expansion of learning opportunities and experiences that are essential components of the students learning experience.

6. What is Expanded Learning? Expanded Learning opportunities focus on developing the academic, social, emotional and physical needs and interests of students through hands-on, engaging learning experiences Endeavors to engage students by focusing on the 3Rs – Rigor, Relevance, and Relationships Expanded Learning is more than child care or homework help

7. What is Expanded Learning? Programs strive to reflect California’s Quality Standards for Expanded Learning in their design and operation. They also incorporate the 4Cs of 21 st Century Learning into their work with youth:  Critical thinking  Communication  Collaboration  Creativity

8. The Impact of Expanded Learning California’s investment in Expanded Learning Opportunities is nearly $700 million per year when state and federal funding are combined, more than all other states combined. California’s state and federal investments in expanded learning support nearly 5,000 programs, serving nearly 500,000 youth on any given day. 25% of California students participate in before and after school, summer learning, and intersession programs (America After 3PM, 2014).

9. The Impact of Expanded Learning Governor Brown signed SB 1221 (Hancock) into law in 2014, which improves Expanded Learning programs’ impact on students by focusing on summer learning loss and strengthening program quality. Elementary school students who participated for 3 or more years in LA’s BEST after school program were about 20% less likely to drop out of school than similar students who did not attend the program. By the 8 th grade, students who participated in LA’s BEST in elementary school years demonstrated gains in math, science, and history GPAs, as well as standardized test scores.

10. The Impact of Expanded Learning Participants in 86 Oakland Unified School District after school programs increased their school-day attendance by 35,343 days in 2010-11, earning the district close to $1 million in additional revenue. Students in Fresno’s after school programs improved their attendance by an average of 17 more days. A southern California high school increased its on-time graduation rate by 28% over 4 years attributed to Expanded Learning opportunities.
