Federal Grants to Bring Extended Learning and Enrichment Opportunities to 19 DPS Schools
Students and families at 19 schools in Denver Public Schools (DPS) will soon benefit from new community learning centers, thanks to millions of dollars in grants through the federal 21st Century Community Learning Center Program. Last week, the Colorado Department of Education announced the award of the grants that will benefit 60 Colorado schools, 19 of which are in DPS. The grants were awarded to school districts and community partners. In DPS, dozens of partners have teamed up with schools across the district to secure and implement the grants, including Metropolitan State College of Denver, Mi Casa Resource Center and Summer Scholars.
