An amazing day at @BellsBeyond Innovation Invitational! Programming ideas, behavior management, and more topics in the breakouts throughout the day. The @NDE_21stCCLC and Family & Community Engagement Teams are lucky to have such great partners! #afterschool




Wrapped up an amazing first day at Innovation Invitational hosted by Beyond School Bells!! Our very own, York 21st CCLC Director, Michelle, had an outstanding presentation about summer programming! It’s been a day full of inspiration, networking and learning. #afterschool
While engagement in summer programming is high, unmet demand is higher. In 2020, there were over 91k kids who would have been enrolled in a summer program if one had been available. Increasing access to summer programming will provide vital resources in every community. #summer
