SUBJECT:
The 21
st
Centur
y Community Learning Centers Request for Proposal is
Temporarily
Withdrawn
In order to ensure the successful continuation of the current 21
st
Century Community Learning Centers
(CCLC) programs, the Florida Department of Education has temporarily withdrawn the competition to
award new programs for the 2005-06 school year. At such time as funds become available, the
Department will reopen the competition and notify all interested parties.
Florida’s 21
st
CCLC program will receive funding in 2005-06 that will allow for existing programs to
continue receiving awards based on Florida’s descending funding structure (100% in the first two years,
80% in year three, 60% in year four, and 40% in year five).
If you have further questions, please contact Joe Davis at (850 ) 245-0424 or joe.davis@fldoe.org.
