This is now year 3 for California’s Expanded Learning Opportunity Program (ELO-P)! Many districts have been re-imagining and re-inventing out-of-school programs, making the best of their ELO-P to close a glaring opportunity gap in extracurricular access and expanded learning.
Join us on October 9 Wednesday at 11:30 am for a Lunch and Learn webinar featuring pioneering school districts as they share their success stories and innovation journeys. We are thrilled to have an esteemed panel of ELO-P leaders from districts all across California, including:

Webinar: Creating Quality Expanded Learning Programs that Promote Student Success in School and Beyond
Overview: Parents work 2,000 hours a year; our students are in school for only 1,000 of those hours, leaving out-of-school time half of K-12 education! California’s Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) is a historic, unprecedented opportunity to close the glaring opportunity gap, advance learning, and synergize communities in the out-of-school time.
It is an exciting time for districts to take risks to innovate, experiment, and re-imagine expanded learning. Nevertheless, supporting 9 hour days and 30 intersession days, as required by ELO-P, is a tremendous undertaking, almost like “building a school outside school”.
With great funding comes great responsibility, challenges, and opportunity. These exceptional expanded learning leaders will discuss the following topics:
• Proven strategies to meet the ELO-P intent
• How to tackle the staffing shortage
• How to increase student participation and improve program attendance
• Effective ways to engage our community partners
• How we truly make parents our partners in this effort
• Managing expanded learning operations efficiently and effectively
• Improve accountability and learn how to measure student outcomes and program success.
This webinar is sponsored by 6crickets, an expanded learning management platform. 6crickets’ mission is to bring the best expanded learning to every student in every school.
Yours in Education,
