Info re: Expanded Learning Opportunities (ELO) Grant Plan
Date: 05/03/2021
Author: Jennie Snyder
Good morning C&I Colleagues,
As you know, a condition for receiving an Expanded Learning Opportunities Grant is that an LEA must complete a plan. The Expanded Learning Opportunities (ELO) Grant Plan must be adopted by the local governing board or body of the LEA at a public meeting on or before June 1, 2021.
The ELO Plan must be submitted within five (5) days of adoption by the governing board or body. School districts must submit the plan to their COE; Charter schools must submit their plans to their chartering authority; COEs and school districts in a single-district county must submit their plans to the CDE. For more information on the ELO plan, see the CDE FAQ website: https://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/he/hn/covidgrantsfaqs.asp
SCOE requests that all School Districts and Charter School's ELO Plans be submitted to Katie Anderson, Fiscal Analyst with the External Fiscal Team. Please email ELO plans to kanderson@scoe.org. Katie will ensure the plans are forwarded to the LEA's Fiscal Advisor and CI Director.
Thank you,
Jennie

Question from the last meeting: In order to meet the requirement of SB 98 to provide in-person instruction to the extent possible, are districts required to open for in-person instruction when Sonoma County falls into the red tier? SCLS response: SB 98 does allow districts to offer distance learning through the end of the year regardless of county tier status.
-
SPSA: SB 820 provides that all schools operating Title I, Part A SWP, including charter schools and single school districts (SSDs), must develop and approve a School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) for the 2020–21 school year. Section 73 of SB 820 removes the requirement for charter schools and SSDs to establish a Schoolsite Council (SSC) in the 2020–21school year. Instead, SSD and charter schools are required to use the stakeholder engagement outlined in SB 98 for the LCP.
