Expanded Learning Opportunity Program (ELOP)
The Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P) provides funding for afterschool and summer school enrichment programs for transitional kindergarten through sixth grade.
Castro Valley Unified School District's Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP) provides students with opportunities for academic support, enrichment, recreation, and social-emotional development beyond the regular school day.
“Expanded learning” means before school, after school, summer, or intersession learning programs that focus on developing the academic, social, emotional, and physical needs and interests of pupils through hands-on, engaging learning experiences. It is the intent of the Legislature that expanded learning programs are pupil-centered, results driven, include community partners, and complement, but do not replicate, learning activities in the regular school day and school year.
Fee is waived for students who are eligible for free or reduced-price meals, are experiencing housing instability, or are foster youth. Complete an application here. Currently enrolled students may apply for the current 2025/2026 school year. The application for benefits for 2026/2027 school year will open on July 15, 2026.
