What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill creates a grant program under which the Department of Public

Instruction may award grants to school boards, operators of independent charter

schools, governing bodies of private schools, or nonprofit organizations that meet

certain criteria to support high-quality after-school programs and

out-of-school-time programs. DPI must award grants in amounts of not less than

$50,000 and not more than $100,000, and each grant recipient must provide

matching funds in an amount equal to at least 25 percent of the amount of the grant

awarded. Among other requirements, a grant recipient must provide consistent and

reliable after-school programming for at least 2.5 hours each school day. In addition,

the grant recipient may provide other out-of-school-time programs, including

summer programs.
