21st Century Community Learning Centers
Request for Proposal

M-DCPS as Fiscal Agent
The purpose of the 21st CCLC program is the creation of community learning centers that provide academic enrichment opportunities during non-school hours for children, particularly students who attend high-poverty and low-performing schools. 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.
The target population for 21st CCLC programs is students attending kindergarten through 12th grade in Florida schools:
• eligible for Title I School-Wide Program services, and/or
• where at least 40% of the student body comes from low-income families (as demonstrated by free and reduced-price lunch status) and their adult family members
**If you are an M-DCPS school site that plans on applying by the deadline, you must contact Ms. Faye Rodney (frodney@dadeschools.net).**
Annual funding is from $50,000 to $500,000. To determine how much your site can write for (max $500,000 per year) please use the Funding Request Guide.
