21st Century

About Us

The Roselle 21st CCLC Program will extend the school day and year by integrating standards-based curricular content into rigorous afterschool remediation instruction. An innovative, evidence-based enrichment program will supplement remediation activities to engage students; improve basic and critical thinking skills; raise test scores; and improve attendance, discipline, and parent and community involvement.

The project was created in response to significant socioeconomic challenges in the community as well as academic performance indicators. 

At each of the sites, students will participate in an Arts Integration Program designed to engage students in the creation and design of their own musical compositions and visual representations of their learning. This project-based approach will encourage students to stay engaged in the learning process while also making it fun and interesting to them. 

Teachers and Artists-in-Residence will use music, dance, theater, and visual arts to reinforce core curriculum topics including English Language Arts and Mathematics.
