Making the ELO-Program Work for Your School
The Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) is a heavily funded 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 this session to get a clear and simplified overview of the program requirements (and ideas for how to track them), learn what is going to be audited, review a few sample budgets and a budgeting tool you can use for program planning, and discuss ideas for maximizing the funding and program efficiency. We’ll go over frequently asked questions and talk with a program director. You will come away with tools and ideas to use immediately to get your ELO Program off the ground.
