Introduction:	Empowered Youth of Columbus (EYC) runs 21st Century Community Learning Center After School Programs at six various sites throughout Columbus. All six EYC programs target students who are in need of additional academic assistance. Students must apply for available slots and meet selection criteria. Some characteristics of qualifying students include: academic performance is below grade level; standardized test scores are below state minimum requirements; or the student is failing in one or more subjects. The 21st CCLC Program was developed to provide federal funds to local schools and organizations to operate after school programs for the purpose of: Providing opportunities for academic enrichment and tutorial services for qualifying students; Offering students a broad array of additional services, programs, and activities to reinforce and complement the regular academic program; Offering families of 21st CCLC students opportunities for literacy and related educational development. The program will serve qualifying students at Dawson Elementary, Downtown Elementary Magnet Academy, Hannan Academy, St. Mary’s Elementary, East Columbus Boys & Girls Club, and The Club/Teen Center Boys & Girls Club. The focus of these programs is to provide a safe after school environment, offer substantive arts enrichment programs, reinforce skills taught through the arts and active learning, improve social/behavioral skills, and to present enrichment opportunities to increase academic achievement.
