Abstract: The purpose of the 21st
Century Community Learning Centers
(21st CCLC) program, as authorized
under Title IV, Part B, of the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act, as
amended by the Every Student Succeeds
Act (ESSA) (20 U.S.C. 7171–7176) is to
create community learning centers that
provide academic enrichment
opportunities for children, particularly
students who attend high poverty and
low-performing schools, to meet State
and local student standards in core
academic subjects, to offer students a
broad array of enrichment activities that
can complement their regular academic
programs, and to offer literacy and other
educational services to the families of
participating children. Present in all 50
states, the District of Columbia, Puerto
Rico, US Virgin Islands, and the Bureau
of Indian Education, academic
enrichment and youth development
programs are designed to enhance
participants’ well-being and academic
success. In support of this program,
Congress appropriated nearly $1.2
billion for 21st CCLC programs for fiscal
year 2016. Consisting of public and
nonprofit agencies, community- and
faith-based organizations, postsecondary
institutions, and other community
entities, 3,695 sub-grantees—operating
9,252 centers—provided academic and
enrichment services and activities to
over 1.8 million participants.

efforts to make themselves selfsupporting, the Randolph-Sheppard
Act, 20 U.S.C. 107 et seq. (Act),

disputes between SLAs and vendors
who are blind and between SLAs and
Federal agencies before three-person
panels convened by the Department
whose decisions constitute final agency
action. 20 U.S.C. 107d–1. The Act also
makes these decisions matters of public
record and requires their publication in
the Federal Register. 20 U.S.C. 107d–

Department announced that it would

engineers able to facilitate a wide range
