About ELP The 21st century community learning centers (21st century clcs) program supports the creation of community learning centers that provide academic enrichment opportunities during non-school hours for children, particularly students who attend high-poverty and low-performing schools. The program helps students meet state and local student standards in core academic subjects, such as reading and math; offers students a broad array of enrichment activities that can complement their regular academic programs; and offers literacy and other educational services to the families of participating children

St. Paul ELP Mission Statement St. Paul’s ELP goal is to offer a safe, caring, enriching, and wholesome environment to all St. Paul students seeking services afterschool. The expanded learning program (ELP) like the day program of St. Paul school is a place where friendship is developed, guidance is offered, and the ambiance of a warm Christian atmosphere is appreciated by all.

Food Program Both Supper and Snack will be served ELP attendees daily. The menu for that month will be posted outside the ELP office for your reference. If your child is a picky eater, you may want to pack additional snack that he/she can enjoy at the two designated serving times. Children need to take all of the food items that are offered and then decide what they want and put what they do not want in the share crates. Any food left in the share crates will be put on the sign out table for parents and students to take from at the end of the night. Menus will be posted at the beginning of each month
