Before and after school programs: After School Education and Safety Program: supplemental grants.

Existing law provides that every school that establishes a before school program component pursuant to the After School Education and Safety Program is eligible to receive a 3-year renewable direct grant, as specified, and is eligible to receive a supplemental grant to operate the program in excess of 180 schooldays during any combination of summer, intersession, or vacation periods, as specified. This bill would instead provide that any school that establishes a program pursuant to the After School Education and Safety Program, or establishes a program with a before school program component pursuant to the program, is eligible to receive a supplemental grant to operate the program in excess of 180 regular schooldays or during any combination of summer, intersession, or vacation periods for a maximum of 30% of the total grant amount awarded, per school year, to the school, as specified. The bill would allow supplemental grantees to change the location of the program and to open eligibility for the program, as specified. The bill would also require a supplemental grantee operating a 6-hour extended day program to submit, for prior approval by the State Department of Education, a revised program plan, as specified. The bill would make other conforming changes.
