Making the ELO Program Work for Your School
This session is recorded. Register for the recordings package.
The Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) is a heavily-funded new priority for the state budget... and it looks like it's here to stay! Whether you've offered afterschool and intersession programming before or not, there is a lot to learn about this program's requirements and opportunities to strategically implement it in ways that help your school.
Join us to get a clear and simplified overview of the program requirements (and ideas for how to track them), review a few sample budgets and a budgeting tool you can use for program planning, and discuss ideas for how to maximize the funding and program efficiency. We'll go over frequently asked questions and talk with program directors who are tackling implementation this year. You will come away with tools and ideas to put to use immediately to get your ELO Program off the ground.
