EXPANDED LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES PROGRAMS (ELO-P) 

EXPANDED LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES PROGRAMS (ELO-P) 

The Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) provides funding for afterschool and summer school enrichment programs for transitional kindergarten through sixth grade.
Our goal in ELOP is to provide safe, quality child care and enrichment that is designed to enhance your child’s educational experience right on your elementary school campus.  We value working with parents, staff, and students at each site to support the classroom curriculum and instruction before and after school. 
 
ELO-P OFFERS:  
  • Program activities that foster the social, emotional, academic, and physical development of children.
  • Free enrollment is open to all WUSD students (TK-6) that qualify under the program requirements. Parents may complete the application for the National School Lunch Program to see if they qualify for free/reduced-cost meals.  If you qualify your child will be able to have their fees waived.
  • Click here for the free/reduced-cost meals application.
  • ELO-P is offered at Westfield, Westmore Oaks, Bridgeway Island, Southport, Stonegate, Riverbank, and Elkhorn.

If your child attends the regular school day, he/she must attend the after-school program. After three (3) unexcused absences participants may lose their spot in the program.
 
Expanded Learning Program Elements
 
Academic Support – Includes 45 minutes of daily academic support. During this time your child will be encouraged to complete their homework assignments. Staff will supervise and assist students and provide one on one help if needed. Students who do not have homework will have time to read a book or participate in other academic activities.
Enrichment – Enrichment experiences allow children and youth to explore investigate, learn, and build skills that enrich educational, physical, and social-emotional development. Enrichment activities may include fine arts, character development through curriculum and play, nutrition education, etc. Enrichment components will be scheduled throughout the year and will follow a weekly schedule. Outside instructors may provide extra enrichment services to the students.

Question 1: Using our typical shipping procedure for delivering hard copy proposals, we would need to print and ship our proposal on September 5th to guarantee on time delivery on the 8th. Since the RFP questions will not be answered until EOD on September 6th, would the district consider allowing vendors to submit the electronic copy ahead of the submission deadline as the official proposal of record and allow vendors 1-3 business days after the 8th for the arrival of hard copy proposals?
Answer 1: The hard copy and the electronic copy must be submitted by the deadline on the RFP.  Proposers do not have to mail it in but can drop it off directly to the WUSD office located at 930 Westacre Road, West Sacramento, CA 95691 before the deadline time and date.
