Abstract: California has invested $13.75 billion in the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) through 2024-25. ELO-P provides funding for before school, after school, summer, and intersession learning programs. The first round of funding was allocated to local educational agencies (LEAs) in 2021-22, and funding has been distributed every year since. When establishing the program in 2021, the Administration set a target of funding the program at $5 billion annually on an ongoing basis, and provides $4 billion in the current school year. This series takes a close look at the ELO-P in Los Angeles County, recipient of just over one quarter ($1.1 billion/year) of the total state allocated funds. The goal of the series is to better understand how ELO-P funds are being distributed and spent with the aim of supporting policymakers in ensuring equity and efficacy in the distribution of current and future funding, and high quality program offerings for kids that meet the needs of families. In the first report, the Opportunity Institute provided an overview of the program and examined LEA funding amounts in Los Angeles County. This second report looks into how LEAs in Los Angeles County propose to spend the apportioned funds.
