[OYAN] March 27 Webinar on Summer Learning Grant Funds through Prioritized School Districts

[BERGQUIST Greta E * SLO]

Hi folks,

Some of you may know about the $30 million in Summer Learning funds directed to school districts. This money is extremely targeted and only allocated to specific districts, and districts are required to partner with a community partner. If you offer summer reading programming to any of these districts, you could be a partner! Please see the below e-mail to check if your district qualifies and for additional information. Best, Greta

Dear OregonASK Partners -


If you are providing (or could be providing) summer programs in any of the school districts on this list<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q7H0HHyi_wqDuHZZvSbZgH-j8kBcgV6j/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=103596611603286041800&rtpof=true&sd=true>, and if you would be interested in partnering with that district (or more than one) to increase access to your summer programs, you may want register to attend<https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcvd-2tpjkoH9GMHpuzwDj8Pt7zdePM5FTS> the OregonASK Summer Learning Grant Informational Webinar for CBOs & Youth Summer Programs on Wednesday, March 27, 1-2pm

*  Purpose: OregonASK will provide an overview of the 2024 Summer Learning Grant program<https://www.oregon.gov/ode/schools-and-districts/grants/Pages/Summer%20Learning/State-Summer-Learning-Grants.aspx>, how community-based organizations can partner with schools and districts to maximize Summer Learning Grant funds to increase access to summer programs for all youth, and answer questions.
Registration link<https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcvd-2tpjkoH9GMHpuzwDj8Pt7zdePM5FTS> for March 27 Webinar

The Summer Learning Grants this year are only available through prioritized school districts (you may find more information on the ODE website<https://www.oregon.gov/ode/schools-and-districts/grants/Pages/Summer%20Learning/State-Summer-Learning-Grants.aspx>), and those districts may contract with partner organizations to increase access to summer program opportunities. These prioritized districts<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q7H0HHyi_wqDuHZZvSbZgH-j8kBcgV6j/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=103596611603286041800&rtpof=true&sd=true> are required to partner with at least one other organization for summer programs (and hopefully more than one). The combination of programs offered or made accessible through scholarships, transportation or other partner agreements must include a combination of programming that covers all of the following:

  *   Academic enrichment (based on state standards)
  *   Youth development (including hands-on and social emotional learning)
  *   Equitable access and family partnership (culturally and linguistically responsive)
In addition, this is a list of some other interesting and creative ideas <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FMMaV7XbDXvzqdM9xUTtm___MZkvJYyIBhof1mOavQA/edit#gid=1744640178> for partnerships or maximizing access to summer programs for all youth and families which have come from brainstorming sessions that OregonASK has hosted with school administrators and CBOs. You may want to look at this list for some ideas for your own partnerships. And / or check our Summer Solutions toolkit<https://oregonask.org/summer-learning/> from 2023 for more ideas.

If you already have partnerships or relationships with any of these school districts, we encourage you to reach out to them to let them know you would like to help with their Summer Learning Grant by partnering for summer programs.

If you would like more information about how school districts may contract with your organization for summer programs using the Summer Learning Grant funds this year, please register<https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcvd-2tpjkoH9GMHpuzwDj8Pt7zdePM5FTS> for the March 27 informational Webinar.

And let us know if we can help with any Summer Learning Grant partnerships.
