The Office of Continuous Improvement and Support is issuing a Request for Application (RFA) for local school districts, community, and faith-based organizations, as well as, other qualifying private and governmental agencies, to design and implement effective out-of-school programs that improve student achievement and social development. The 21st CCLC program provides academic, artistic, and cultural enrichment opportunities for students who attend high-poverty and low-performing schools, to meet the challenging state academic standards. KDE's mission is to partner with districts, schools, families, students, businesses, industries, and communities to provide leadership and support to ensure success for every student.
