“After "school" with cleveland public library- brief description: traditional coach sam's programming (aiming higher) at cleveland public library branch. A virtual (zoom and hop-in) program will guide the first 9 weeks, hoping that this program will be in-person at some point throughout the year. Coach sam's commitment: four days a week, 8 hours a week of programming staff members (site coordinator and tutors.) cost of program- one (1) week- 384 + materials nine (9) week cmsd plan- 3,456 + materials continue after cmsd school returns? Yes. With potential for growth into more branches. Cmsd learning pods: brief description: in response to request from superintendent eric gordon and cmsd's call to action to community partners, coach sam's has teamed up with the rainey institute and reach success to deliver programming at the rainey institute. Coach sam's is also operating this learning pods program with a salvation army location. This in person program operates monday through friday for 50 cmsd students (varying schools) at the rainey institute. This program consists of our staff assisting students (k-8) with virtual learning for schools. Coach sam's covers all the afternoon programs (12-4 pm) coach sam's also provides the programming for times when student are not class and on wednesdays when there is no school.

Cost of program- one week- 2,240 + materials nine (9) week cmsd plan- 20,160 + materials continue after cmsd school returns? No. Once cmsd students return to school, we hope to resume after school programming. Status unclear as to when/if they will return. We will continue this program as long as students are out of school, even if beyond the nine weeks. Coach sam's homework help- brief description: students and their families have struggled to transition to remote learning. Parents/caregivers are expected to assist students with virtual schedules, homework, studying, etc. This has proven to be especially difficult for families in cmsd as many are deemed "essential workers- and are not home or able to assist. In addition, connectivity has compounded this struggle. Further, many families parents do not have the tools to support students. In response, coach sam's scholars has opened two drop-in centers (east and west side locations) as well as a virtual call center for families to receive assistance with school work. The requirement is for the student and the parent guardian to attend together. This is not a drop off program. Family engagement is vital to making this work. Coach sam's staff are available at both locations to assist any student and parent with any classwork/homework. Cost of program- one (1) week- 1,280 + materials nine (9) week cmsd plan- 11,520 + materials continue after cmsd school returns? Yes. This is a community need regardless of students being in school or not. Family engagement is vital to a student academic success. This a program that will likely be a part of coach sam's programming for the remainder of this year and beyond. Expected reimbursement- coach sam's program. No funds from program.”
