Description: Chicago Public Schools will implement an After School All-Stars program, a comprehensive after-school program that includes academics, enrichment, and independent learning activities, at 150 Chicago public, elementary and middle schools (serving grades 3-8). The program's goals are to provide enrichment activities in addition to the reading and math assistance that students already receive outside of the regular school day and to prevent delinquency by keeping children occupied during at-risk after school hours. The program's strategy includes offering intensive after school programming for at least six hours a week for a minimum of 20 weeks during the school year. Chicago Public Schools will report on performance outputs such as the number of participants, hours of programming, and student attendance. Performance measures will include students' academic performance, test scores, and truancy rates.
