The three-and-a-half extra hours of instruction available Monday through Friday add up to an addi- tional 90 days of learning each year, and it is paying off in student suc- cess. In English/Language Arts, 55.9% of students in the SERRF After School Program scored in the Proficient or Advanced levels, com- pared to 49.1% for those who did not participate. impressive: 67.7% of the SERRF students scored at the Proficient or Advanced Levels, compared to 48.6% for the students who were not in the after school program. California voters made this pos- sible by passing Proposition 49, the After School Education and Safety (ASES) Act. Through this ear- marked funding we are able to pro- vide a safe place for our students to go after school where caring adults surround them. It has turned after school hours into a time of inspira- tion and achievement. This year The Math results are even more 1,600 students are taking part in ASES funded programs at 25 school sites throughout Tehama County. Aligning after- school academic, enrichment and recreational activities directly with the school day learning is key. Acad- emic Alignment Coaches along with math/science and English language arts curriculum specialists work with the administra- tion and teachers at sites to target areas where students will benefit from additional attention after school. This ongoing communication and close monitoring of student progress ensures they get the help they need to close learning gaps more quickly. The academic component includes homework support, tutor- ing and targeted intervention. Enrichment activities are opportu- nities for hands-on, experiential learning that is aligned with state content standards. The recreation piece addresses the whole child by including fitness, nutrition and healthy hobbies, along with a char- acter education component.

Larry Champion sure our students stay in school. Current research shows that chil- dren who do not reach reading proficiency by third grade are more like- ly to drop out of school. Our after school educa- tors work closely with kindergarten through second grade students on reading and comprehen- sion skills, so they are proficient by the time they enter third grade. As a participant in the Expect More Tehama movement, the after school program helps provide the knowledge, skills and self-confi- dence our students need to keep them on track to graduate from high school. Graduating and being pre- pared to have options opens a world of possibilities to them such as going on to study at a college or university. Think about the value of after school programs. They are empower- ing our children to make a difference in their own lives and in their com- munity. Now think about what it would be like if our students did not have this resource. We would all lose. Larry Champion is Tehama County superintendent of schools.
