Frequently Asked Questions The Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) provides funding for afterschool and summer school enrichment programs for transitional kindergarten through sixth grade.
“Expanded learning” means before school, after school, summer, or intersession learning programs that focus on developing the academic, social, emotional, and physical needs and interests of pupils through hands-on, engaging learning experiences.
It is the intent of the Legislature that expanded learning programs are pupil-centered, results driven, include community partners, and complement, but do not replicate, learning activities in the regular school day and school year.

ELO-P TK and K Legislative Report The Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) Transitional Kindergarten (TK) & Kindergarten (K) Report was designed to capture data from each Local Educational Agency (LEA) and learn how their ELO Program was designed to provide access to TK/K students.
LEAs were asked to complete a survey about their third-party providers providing access to program to TK/K students at non-LEA sites for the 2023-24 school year.
ELO-P TK and K Legislative Report Third Party Off Site Provider Survey EC Section 46120(e) provides that any Local Educational Agency (LEA) receiving an apportionment for the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) commencing within 2023-24 must provide data for any and all third party providers who are operating the program at an off-site location, including the California State Preschool Program (CSPP).

This survey collected essential data to document providers contributing to afterschool and enrichment services under ELO-P. The findings note location, grade levels served, and license number (if applicable).

The National Leadership Grants for Libraries Program (NLG-L) supports projects that address critical needs of the library and archives fields and have the potential to advance practice and strengthen library and archival services for the American public. Successful proposals will generate results such as new models, tools, research findings, services, practices, and/or alliances that can be widely used, adapted, scaled, or replicated to extend and leverage the benefits of federal investment. Applications to IMLS should both advance knowledge and understanding and ensure that the federal investment made generates benefits to society. Specifically, the goals for this program are to generate projects of far-reaching impact that: • Build the workforce and institutional capacity for managing the national information infrastructure and serving the information and education needs of the public. • Build the capacity of libraries and archives to lead and contribute to efforts that improve community well-being and strengthen civic engagement. • Improve the ability of libraries and archives to provide broad access to and use of information and collections with emphasis on collaboration to avoid duplication and maximize reach. • Strengthen the ability of libraries to provide services to affected communities in the event of an emergency or disaster. • Strengthen the ability of libraries, archives, and museums to work collaboratively for the benefit of the communities they serve. Throughout its work, IMLS places importance on diversity, equity, and inclusion. This may be reflected in an IMLS-funded project in a wide range of ways, including efforts to serve individuals of diverse geographic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds; individuals with disabilities; individuals with limited functional literacy or information skills; individuals having difficulty using a library or museum; and underserved urban and rural communities, including children from families with incomes below the poverty line.
