Extended School Day Program
The Newark Central School District is excited to provide the Extended School Day (ESD) Program for students in grades K-12. The program is funded using Extended School Day and 21st Century Community Learning Centers grant funding through the New York State Education Department.
The focus and mission of the ESD program is to:
Provide opportunities for our students to grow social emotionally and academically through after school programming and community partnerships.
Ensure our students have the opportunity for educational, recreational, and enrichment programs.
Provide supervised environment that promotes safety by increasing attachment, self-regulation, social emotional and academic competencies, and mental and physical health of students.
ESD and 21 CCLC programming aims to support three pillars that supports the Newark Central School District Mission and Vision and the District Strategic Plan.
The ESD Program will enhance collaboration between school, home, and community-based organizations in conducting strategic planning and in implementing successful interventions using the Collaboration ARCH tied to our Community Schools model.
