For the 2017-2018 School Year, staff <br />will serve the following schools: Fair Oaks, Selby Lane, Henry Ford, Hawes, John Gill, <br />and Kennedy. Services include after school tutoring, recreation and enrichment <br />programming such as life skills and family education opportunities. The majority of <br />funding for the programs comes from After School Education and Safety Program <br />(ASES) State and 21st Century Community Learning Federal grants managed by the <br />District. <br /> <br />The City provides an after school Program Coordinator on each site, and maintains a <br />1:18 ratio of Youth Development Leaders to children. The City also works with many <br />other partners to provide quality activities and educational experiences. Program <br />partners include: Boys and Girls Club, Hidden Villa, John Gardner Center, Redwood <br />City 2020, Redwood City Family Centers, Police Activities League, Sheriffs Activities <br />League, Stanford University, YMCA, and others. <br /> <br />The agreement includes the “BASE” (school day) funding as well as the <br />“SUPPLEMENTAL” (non-school day) funding. The combined funding totals will allow the <br />City to receive a not-to-exceed amount of $811,145 based on anticipated attendance <br />reimbursement. <br /> <br /> <br />7.1.C. - Page 1
