Plain-English Summary

This bill would continue funding for community learning centers that provide after-school and summer programs for students in low-income areas through 2035, helping kids access tutoring, enrichment activities, and other educational support outside regular school hours. The program serves elementary and secondary school students who might otherwise lack access to these resources, and the bill ensures the federal government will keep paying for these centers over the next decade.
