Afterschool & Summer Programming
August 03, 2023
AASA is a key partner in Engage Every Student, a bold new call to action to provide high-quality out-of-school time learning opportunities for every child who wants to participate.
Engage Every Student was launched on July 14, 2022, by U.S Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona. This initiative seeks "to provide high-quality out-of-school time learning opportunities for every child who wants to participate (Engage Every Student, 2022).”
In addition to AASA, four coordinating partners (Afterschool Alliance, National Summer Learning Association, The National Comprehensive Center and National League of Cities) have created a technical assistance consortium to engage municipal leaders, superintendents and program providers.
AASA thanks the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation for its generous support of access to afterschool and summer learning, and the Engage Every Student initiative.

Public schools know the considerable value afterschool and summer learning opportunities provide in a learning community.
