Applies for 21st Century Grant
The U.S. Department of Education's 21st Century Grant supports the creation of community learning centers that provide academic enrichment opportunities for children during non-school hours. The program helps students meet state and local student standards in core academic subjects, such as reading and math; offers students a broad array of enrichment activities that can complement their regular academic programs; and offers literacy and other educational services to the families of participating children.
On Tuesday, April 17, South St. Paul Public Schools conducted a brief one question phone survey to families of the District. The survey was to determine parents’ interest for additional student learning opportunities outside of the school day or during the summer. Parents were asked to indicate their strongest area of interest by selecting from the following 8 options:
1. Reading and Math
2. Science
3. Technology
4. Humanities
5. Spanish
6. Art and Music
7. Physical activity and wellness
8. Not interested
