Mt. Diablo Unified School District’s CARES (Collaborative for Academics, Recreation & Enrichment for Students) After School Program requests approval to apply for a five year competitive U. S. Department of Education’s 21st Century Community Learning Centers grant for thwo schools in the district. Mt. Diablo CARES currently operates after school programs at 16 district schools (one of which is included in this application) serving 2,700 K-12 students each day which are primarily funded by the California Department of Education’s (CDE) After School Education & Safety grant.
The CARES After School Program provides daily academic, enrichment, recreation, nutrition and leadership activities from the end of the regular school day until 6:00 p.m. during the school year and during the summer. The district has an opportunity to apply for one new school (Concord High) and to continue operating the Mt.

In addition, each school is applying for the equitable access and family literacy funds available through the 21st CCLC grant to support literacy and access to students and families.
If awarded, the grant will serve 280 high school students and will provide $590,000 per year ($295,000 for Concord High and Mt. Diablo High schools annually) for a total of $2,950,000 over five years.
