ExpandED Schools celebrates Black History Month, highlighting Black Americans' significant contributions, achievements, and accomplishments throughout history.
Earlier this month ExpandED Schools participated in New York State Network For Youth Success's Afterschool Advocacy Week to disseminate data and vivid stories around the critical need for afterschool, summer and expanded learning.
ExpandED and the Partnership for Afterschool Education (PASE) convened a working group to discuss growing concerns about the state of young children's literacy levels in the wake of Covid-19. Since the start of the school year, it has become evident that more students need help with reading and writing. A new paper outlines ideas to further improve literacy along with action steps.
