The High-Quality Supplemental Educational Services and After-School Partnerships Demonstration program awarded five grants to support partnerships between supplemental educational services (SES) programs and 21st Century Community Learning Centers projects to increase the academic achievement of low-income students in Title I schools identified for improvement, corrective action, or restructuring. The projects will serve as models of how these two federally authorized after-school initiatives can be coordinated so that a greater number of students enroll in, participate in, and complete academic after-school services that improve their achievement in reading and math. The three-year grants were awarded to (1) Santa Ana Unified School District (CA), in partnership with THINK Together; (2) the Latin American Youth Center (DC); (3) Southwest Florida Workforce Development Board (FL), in partnership with McCREL, AIR, and Si2; (4) Albuquerque Public Schools (NM), in partnership with Advantage Tutoring, Rio Grande Educational Collaborative, and Youth Development Incorporated and (5) Northwest Buffalo Community Center (NY), in partnership with the Boys and Girls Club of Northtowns of Western New York and Huntington Learning Center.
