Formerly known as LEAP, our Expanded Learning Program provides funding for after school and summer school enrichment programs for TK through 12th grade.
Sanger Unified now has 17 schools that offer ELP and of that are 14 elementary schools, WAMS, Sanger High, and Sanger West High. Approximately 3,700 kids will participate in the after school programs on a daily basis.
ELP service grades TK-12th grade and all ELP sites are open every single school day from the time school lets out until 6:00 p.m. Students receive a free snack, homework help, tutoring, physical education and also participate in a variety of fun enrichment activities, including dance, art & crafts, drama productions, nutrition education and much more! And there is NO COST to participate.
Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions (559) 524-6564.
After school programs keep kids safe, help working families and improve academic achievement. More than 28 million children today have parents who work outside the home. Two-thirds of Americans say that it is difficult to find programs in their communities and that not enough programs are available.
Studies show that students involved in after school programs get better grades, attend school more and have improved behavior. They express greater hopes for the future and more interest in school. Teens who participate in after school programs are less likely to skip class, use marijuana and other drugs, smoke, drink alcohol or engage in other risky behaviors.
Our ELP program is staffed by the California Teaching Fellows Foundation. If you are seeking career opportunities to serve as role models, tutors, and activity leaders for our after school program please see the Teaching Fellows website for more information.
