HELPING FAMILIES THRIVE

Projects - 21st Century Community Learning Centers

Ohio's vision is that all children, regardless of ethnicity, income, disability, or where they live will achieve academic success.

Funding for the 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) before and after school programs is provided locally through a federal grant given to the Ohio Department of Education, awarded to the Tri-County Educational Service Center.

Current sites in Wayne County include the following Wooster City Schools buildings:

Cornerstone Elementary
Lincoln Way Elementary
Opportunity School (alternative education)
Parkview Elementary School

Previous site, Shreve Elementary, completed their fifth and final year of the 21st CCLC grant funding in 2008-09.

Goals and Objectives

Increase academic performance and homework completion in reading and math by offering homework assistance and tutoring.
Provide a safe, before and after school environment for the children.
Provide hands on learning activities offered by a nurturing staff.
Offer enrichment opportunities for the children to be offered activities they might not otherwise be able to afford, such as the arts, music, technology, recreation, nutrition and health.
Offer educational opportunities and events for the families of the children.
