STATEWIDE OUT-OF-SCHOOL TIME PROGRAMMING

SB 107 appropriates $20 million from the general fund annually to fund after-school and enrichment programs for school-age youth across New Mexico. The bill allocates $10 million specifically for school districts, charter schools, Bureau of Indian Education schools, and tribally controlled schools, and $10 million for nonprofit community organizations providing such programs. Unspent funds at year-end will not revert to the general fund, ensuring ongoing support for these services. This bill directly affects students in public schools and community-based programs by expanding access to structured out-of-school time activities.
