Promoting Learning and Development in K-12 Out-of-School Time: Proceedings of a Workshop—in Brief (2024)

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened an ad-hoc committee to examine learning and development in out-of-school time settings across the K-12 age span. The committee's review is focused on students from low-income households across urban, suburban, and rural settings. It is also tasked with attending to issues of intersectionality of economic stress with other factors that have operated historically to marginalize young people; such as gender, sexual orientation, race, age, disability, and involvement with justice or child welfare systems, among others. To inform its deliberations, the committee held three public sessions, on October 19, 2023, February 8, 2024, and April 18, 2024. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussion of the three workshops.
