Notebook: Focus on Expanded Learning Time
Posted by on June 03, 2013
Focus on Expanded Learning Time
Through a generous grant from the Ford Foundation, The Philadelphia Public School Notebook has released a new issue entitled “Focus on Expanded Learning Time.”
With the School District of Philadelphia in crisis and cutting back, The Notebook found examples of how schools – and in some cases whole cities – have leveraged and maximized scarce resources to serve children better. The articles in this publication include:
Building Quality Time
Trying to Organize a Big Mash of Programs
Stalled on Summer Learning Loss: District Offerings Dwindle
To Get More and Better Programming, Principals are Instrumental
Community Schools Bring Services Under One Roof
Extra Time Can Help in Fight for Equity, Studies Say
‘It’s Really Hard’ to Fund Extended Time Amid Cutbacks
